This renovated 1950s home on a tranquil, tree-lined street in the heart of Fondren is a timeless classic. The curb appeal and charm are evident from the first look; with painted brick planters for seasonal color bordering the welcoming front porch and the relaxing porch swing, visitors will definitely want to linger. The well-designed three bedroom, three bath home boasts a unique full perimeter concrete beam foundation, designed by a well-known structural engineer. Offering formal living and dining as well as a private office (that could also serve as a nursery) and a brand-new deck, the home has been carefully restored and upgraded while staying true to its original character. Features include a new roof with a 50-year warranty, new kitchen appliances, new light fixtures, fresh neutral paint throughout the interior and the exterior, two ensuite bedrooms each opening onto the new deck, dual vanities in the primary bath, new brick work, new French drains, new back yard landscaping and much more. The vintage bathrooms have been painstakingly restored, including all new grout work and new plumbing trim. The original owners lived in the home for more than 70 years, and the new owners honored their legacy with thoughtful enhancements and improvements throughout. Old Canton Lane is located at the head of the new pedestrian lane leading to all the fun of Fondren: shopping, dining, live music, bowling and even movies.
