There is another new kid on the block in Old Metairie.

A new construction home by Miller Building Co. at 442 Jefferson Ave. has sold for $2,020,500. The lot formerly had a cottage-style home that the same family lived in for close to 70 years.

The buyer is an Old Metairie resident looking for new construction and more space. That new construction features 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, 4,552 square feet of living area, and 5,257 square feet total.

“New construction is booming in Old Metairie. There continues to be a high demand for it,” said Missy Maestri Martin, realtor with Prieur Properties LLC. Martin was the listing agent on the transaction; her colleague Elizabeth Leblanc, a realtor with Prieur Properties, was the sales agent.

“What’s unique is these high-quality, new construction homes that are being built are co-existing well with the older, large cottage style homes the area has been known for,” Martin said. “In that process, that Old Metairie charm still exists and has not been lost.”

The home features European White Oak wide plank floors, Kohler fixtures, Julie Neil lighting, Quartzite and marble counters, Thermadore appliances, custom cabinets, walk-in pantry, exterior lighting, room for a pool, outdoor kitchen, sprinkler system, and laundry rooms, both upstairs and downstairs. There is a garage, plus circle drive parking.

The downstairs, consisting of 12-foot ceilings, has the master bedroom, a primary suite with a primary custom closet and bathroom. There is an open floor plan with separate dining and breakfast areas. Upstairs, which has 10-foot ceilings, has four bedrooms, plus a den.

“Miller Building is a fourth generation company in New Orleans, and they did an absolutely, stunning job with this house and the lot,” Martin said. “All the trends of what people want are featured throughout this home – office space on the first floor, room for a pool, enough outdoor space for entertainment and relaxation on the patio. They really maximized the space and nailed the home and surrounding lot.”

Closing thoughts: “We started a little bit late this year in terms of activity, but it has absolutely taken off, and I anticipate the market to be very active in Old Metairie this fall,” Martin said.
