Breathtaking 3 bed 2 bath vintage-inspired cottage located in the popular Garden District of Lake Charles. The home has been completely remodeled but the owner took great pride in preserving all of the home's original features & charm. The home has many windows for natural light, split floor plan, and many custom features and detailed woodwork throughout. The kitchen is very upscale and features granite, custom cabinets, stainless appliances, and a precious breakfast nook. The home has a formal living room, formal dining room, and an oversized den area with a handmade replication of an antique mantle. The master is large and opens to a lavish en suite with a custom subway-tile walk-in shower, huge soaking tub, super cool custom cabinet tops, vessel sinks, and a tank less hot water heater. The exterior of the home has been updated with hardy siding, new paint, custom awnings, and architectural lifetime shingles. The backyard is a great size and perfect to entertain friends.
