Stately and beautifully updated, 4700 Folse Drive offers classic curb appeal with thoughtful modern improvements in one of Metairie's most desirable lakefront neighborhoods. Situated on a corner lot, this spacious home features 3,597 square feet of living area with an ideal layout including two primary suites, generous entertaining areas, and seamless indoor and outdoor living. All major components have been updated within the last four years, including a new roof installed in 2022. The home is equipped with hurricane-ready features including fully functional HURRICANE SHUTTERS and other protective improvements designed to withstand storm conditions, as well as a whole-home Generac GENERATOR, offering both security and peace of mind.
The foyer opens to a gracious living and dining room with cherry wood floors and abundant natural light. The UPDATED kitchen is both elegant and functional, showcasing custom cabinetry, imported Brazilian porcelain surfaces, quartz countertops, stainless appliances, a gas range with pot filler, farmhouse sink, and an island with seating. A bright breakfast area connects to the kitchen and flows into the oversized den and game room complete with a wet bar and built-in library shelving, creating the perfect setting for gatherings.
The first-floor primary suite offers privacy and comfort with a spacious bedroom, walk-in closet, and UPDATED bath. Plantation shutters enhance the bedrooms and living room. Upstairs, a second primary suite provides flexibility for guests or multi-generational living, along with three additional bedrooms and ample storage.
The backyard includes a covered patio, low-maintenance landscaping, and access to the attached two-car garage. An automatic irrigation system services all flower beds with two control units, one for the backyard and one for the remainder of the property. Located just steps from the Lake Pontchartrain levee with easy access to walking paths, schools, shopping, and dining. Flood zone X and thoughtfully maintained throughout. Seller is willing to pay up to 1% of the buyer's closing costs.
