Property Description

Welcome to 1244 Barrister Street—an architectural treasure in the heart of Alexandria's Garden District. Just minutes from Louisiana Christian University in Pineville, this location combines timeless charm with everyday convenience. Known as the Scott-Thomas-McDaniel House, this 6-bedroom, 4½-bath home has been lovingly passed through three generations and was fully restored in 2007 to preserve its historic character while enhancing comfort and function. Originally built in 1914 and expanded in 1927, the home features a hand-crafted curved staircase, a well-functioning elevator, an upstairs balcony overlooking the garden, original hardwood floors, rich millwork, and a front walkway laid by the original family—a timeless welcome still in place today. The gracious layout includes expansive living areas, a formal dining room, and a cheerful sunroom that looks out on a spacious yard with original brick patios, historic lighting, and a professionally installed drainage system. The kitchen and attached workroom were completely renovated in 2016, blending classic charm with modern convenience—featuring custom cabinetry, double ovens, updated appliances, and smart storage. A cozy, hidden under-stair play “cubby” and a converted attic “slumber room” add character and comfort. The property also includes a detached garage apartment (c. 1941)—ideal for guests, long-term rental, or even an owner's or manager's retreat. This flexible setup makes the home a wonderful candidate for a bed-and-breakfast or multi-generational living. Plus, two additional homes across the street (also available by the same owner) offer rare expansion opportunities. Every upgrade—from electrical and HVAC to a recirculating hot water system—was completed with care and respect for the home's legacy. And with the addition of 36 solar panels, this property also embraces sustainable, energy-efficient living. Spacious, story-filled, and beautifully maintained, 1244 Barrister Street is ready for its next chapter.
