Cordially invited to sip your favorite Southern Louisiana beverage on the front porch of this charming Acadian cottage! Picture yourself on the cozy rocking chairs, watching the sunset over the trees within a stone’s throw from the lake or just soaking in the quintessential Southern vibes. Step inside the foyer and peek at 1,700 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed living space. Details in the crown molding, lots of windows, custom blind and option for a gas fireplace - which would be perfect for intimate gatherings or relaxing nights in. The kitchen is a home chef’s dream come true, complete with a walk-in pantry, stainless electric cooktop range/oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, disposal, and microwave. Its design ensures ample storage and functionality, making meal prep a breeze. Retreat to the lower-level main suite, a personal sanctuary. French doors lead to a spacious screened patio, offering a private oasis without the need for a fence. Relax in the soaking tub or separate shower and enjoy the convenience of a walk-in closet with movable built-ins left by the seller. The exterior features minimal landscaping upkeep plus sturdy Hardie plank construction and a brand-new roof installed after the 2021 hurricane storms. With excellent insulation keeping utility costs low, this fairly new build requires less maintenance, allowing you to enjoy more of what you love. Situated in the heart of Lake Charles, this home offers the perfect blend of convenience and tranquility. It’s just a hop and a jump from downtown, Interstate 10, and Interstate 210. Though located in a FEMA-declared flood zone AE, this elevated home comes with minimal flood insurance.
