Description

Take a scenic drive down Old Military Road, where rolling farmland and grazing cattle frame the landscape, and you'll arrive at this executive retreat just minutes from Downtown Covington. Set on 1.51 acres, this professionally decorated brick home offers the perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and convenience all surrounded by the beauty of nature. Across the road, Wild Bush Farms and Vineyard provides a charming backdrop, while the property itself welcomes you with manicured grounds, a large carport, and an attached workshop. Step inside and you'll immediately notice the abundant natural light, wood flooring, and soaring ceilings that create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The thoughtfully designed floor plan includes a private primary suite, complete with a spa-like bath featuring a soaking tub, double vanities, a custom walk-in shower, and a spacious closet with custom shelving. A separate wing hosts two additional bedrooms and a guest bath, while a versatile study/bonus room adds flexibility for work or hobbies. The open living and dining areas are ideal for entertaining, seamlessly flowing into the expansive kitchen, breakfast nook, and keeping room, spaces designed for comfort and everyday living. A half bath conveniently opens to both the kitchen and the back patio, perfect for poolside gatherings. Out back, a large patio overlooks the yard and pool area, creating a serene setting for relaxation or entertaining. With a roof only two years old, recent updates, and no flood zone designation, this property offers peace of mind along with beauty. Close to schools, and just a short drive to restaurants, shopping, downtown Covington and medical, yet offering the quiet escape of country living, this home is ideal for buyers seeking refined living with the charm of the Northshore lifestyle. Homes like this don't come along often. Schedule your private tour of 81253 Hwy 1082 today and discover why this Bush retreat is the perfect place to call home.
