The Gates on Manhattan

Located in Metairie, Louisiana, this single-story residence combines functional interior spaces with notable outdoor amenities. The exterior centerpiece is a generously sized rectangular swimming pool framed by brick-tiled coping and a spacious concrete deck, ideal for outdoor relaxation. A covered pergola with white columns connects the pool area to the structure, which features a low-pitched hip roof with warm-toned shingles. Inside, the layout promotes an open flow between key living areas. A versatile room serves as a dedicated home office, featuring carpeted flooring, neutral painted walls, and ample space for a full desk setup and open shelving. This room connects directly to the living area, where hardwood-style flooring and a comfortable seating arrangement create a welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen is visible from the living space and includes cabinetry in a light finish alongside in-unit laundry. The bedroom offers carpeted flooring, a reach-in closet, and a window with blinds providing natural light. Decorative touches throughout—including framed artwork, potted plants, and tasteful accents—contribute to a cohesive, well-maintained ambiance. The overall design prioritizes practicality and comfort throughout each connected space.
