I love that kitchen! I don’t think the interior of my cabinets would look nearly as nice with a glass front. A mish mash of cups and glasses. Lol. This home was built in 1940. It is located on 1.85 acres in Jeanerette, Louisiana. This property has a pool and a guest house. There are views of the bayou and a boat launch. Three bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 3,216 square feet. $345,000
