About 2611 Fairfield Avenue

ATTENTION RESTORERS, INVESTORS & HISTORIC HOME ENTHUSIASTS: Step back in time and imagine the possibilities with this stately circa-1910 Colonial estate, situated on approximately 1.554 acres beneath a magnificent canopy of century-old oak trees. Impressive Colonial columns create a commanding façade, while the home’s remarkable architectural details offer a glimpse into the craftsmanship and grandeur of another era. Inside, the expansive residence features 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and 8 fireplaces, many with beautiful original mantels, including a decorative marble fireplace with gas logs. Historic details abound, including original hardwood floors, a showstopping grand staircase with a hand-carved banister, massive pocket doors off the foyer, intricate front-porch mosaic tile, handpainted ceiling moldings, and original stained-glass windows. This property is in need of extensive renovations and is being sold AS-IS, but its impressive scale, architectural character, gracious grounds and one-of-a-kind details provide an extraordinary canvas for restoration. Bring your contractor, your creativity and your appreciation for homes with history. Located in Shreveport’s Highland Historic District, this property may offer opportunities for historic preservation tax incentives, particularly if restored for qualifying income-producing use. Buyers should independently verify eligibility, requirements, and available State and Federal Historic Tax Credits. If these walls could talk, imagine the stories they would tell. For the buyer with vision, this is more than a renovation—it is an opportunity to preserve a piece of Shreveport history, restore a grand Southern residence to its former glory and write its next chapter. **New downstairs 5 Ton HVAC installed 10-2026**
