520 LABARRE DR Metairie, LA 70001

Step into a picture perfect Old Metairie lifestyle in one of the most coveted and beautiful residential corridors in the entire region. Ideally positioned between Metairie Road and W Napoleon Avenue, and only 3 blocks on the downtown side of Causeway Boulevard, this storybook cottage sits amid a canopy of mature trees, manicured streets, and surrounding homes that routinely exceed the $1,000,000 mark. This is the Old Metairie everyone dreams about — charming, walkable, quiet, and undeniably prestigious.



Set gracefully on a large oversized lot, the home presents classic curb appeal, ample off street parking, and a private rear yard that feels like its own retreat. A detached garden and storage shed adds extra function, while the lush outdoor spaces invite easy entertaining or quiet evenings under the sky.



Inside, the cottage is warm, elegant, and filled with natural light. Original hardwood floors sweep through a flexible and well defined layout. You'll find 3 separate bedrooms, 2 beautifully updated full baths, a formal living and dining room that speaks to the home's timeless character, and a separate den and family room that opens directly onto the rear courtyard and large entertaining deck. The flow is exceptional, and the condition is truly move in ready.



Located in an X Flood Zone that has never flooded, with annual flood insurance of only $750, the peace of mind here matches the charm.



Properties in this part of Old Metairie, and especially at this price point, rarely come to market. This is a standout opportunity in one of the most admired and highly sought after neighborhoods in the entire metro area. Do not miss this one.
