Located in the heart of the Bywater, this classic double shotgun blends historic charm with practical updates in one of the city's most walkable neighborhoods. The traditional front-to-back shotgun double layout creates an open, connected feel throughout the living and dining spaces, while natural light pours in through the updated windows. Original wood floors, picture molding, and decorative cased openings fill the spaces with character and architectural appeal. Each unit offers an eat-in kitchen with a gas range oven and a full bathroom, along with the convenience of in-unit laundry.
