Property Description
Step into the historic charm of 2218 Thornton Court, and step into your future! This 3 bedroom, 2 full bath home on a single floor is a classic example of Alexandria's Garden District bungalow architecture. Built in 1922, the front gabled home with tall windows sits tucked away among Natchez white crepe myrtle trees in Thornton Place, a development of Bolton and Hayden Realty Company. Your new home emerged from the Pecan grove of the old J.R. Thornton place whose owner had been a U.S Senator from Louisiana. Over the decades, a bank president, pharmacist of the Charity hospital, a history professor at Louisiana College, and many families filled the rooms with happy memories of great living. The home's owners have preserved the distinctive character and classic American interior that must be seen to be believed. A gracious porch greets visitors, a formal garden of native plants opens right out from the back door and is visible from the sunroom that is filled each morning with a golden natural light. A two-car driveway and double grassy lots of .381 of an acre create a backyard perfect for play and yet still quiet enough to be a true sanctuary. A wooden privacy fence stretches around the back with olive trees, a lime tree, and rose bushes galore. The bungalow interior boasts high ceilings, a formal living and dining room, spacious eat-in kitchen, wide picture windows across the sunroom, and most impressive pine hardwood floors. A 1923 clawfoot tub, large antique mantel and gas ready fireplace are inviting reminders of the gracious living awaiting you. Call and take a tour today. You can be a part of this rich history and continue the 2218 Thornton Court story.
