Property Description

NEW PRICE - BACK ON MARKET. This charming Mid-Century Modern home is located in one of Lafayette's original and most desirable historic neighborhoods. Situated on a prime corner lot with dual street access, this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers timeless character and thoughtful design throughout. The landscaped yard includes a sprinkler system, and a distinctive half-moon driveway leads to a 2-car carport, providing convenient covered access into the home. The exterior showcases classic Art Deco-inspired architecture that reflects the era in which the home was built more than 60 years ago. Inside, the home has been meticulously cared for, preserving many original details while offering a spacious and functional layout. The primary suite is generously sized with room for a sitting area and features a cozy gas brick fireplace, built-in storage, dual vanities, and a large walk-in closet. Formal living and dining areas were professionally designed by one of Lafayette's premier interior designers of the time, with custom window treatments and cornices that complement the home's vintage style. A comfortable family room and informal dining area provide inviting everyday living spaces filled with natural light. The kitchen offers abundant storage, a center island, and beautiful Honduran ribbon-stripe mahogany cabinetry--perfect for cooking and entertaining. A sunroom overlooks the peaceful backyard, where mosaic and brick walkways create a unique outdoor retreat. Additional built-in cabinetry along the hallway provides excellent storage. Original mid-century touches remain, including classic pink and blue bathrooms and terrazzo flooring. Major updates include a roof replaced approximately three years ago and well-maintained HVAC units for year-round comfort. A rare opportunity to own a distinctive, well-preserved home full of character in one of Lafayette's most established neighborhoods. Schedule your private tour today
