Situated on an oversized lot in downtown Lake Charles's garden district sits this beautifully restored Victorian home. If you like the feel of a newer home but don't want to live where everything looks the same, then this is the place for you. Some of the updates include hardy plank siding, windows, electrical, plumbing, insulation, and much, much more. Walking up the brick pathway to the front door, you are greeted with a generous-sized front porch that's big enough to host family and friends. Just inside, you will find the centerpiece of the home, the beautiful U-shaped wooden staircase. Carrying on the wood theme, you will notice the real wood floors that run throughout most of the downstairs with engineered wood upstairs. Just past the staircase, you arrive at the large open-concept living, dining and kitchen area. The kitchen boasts granite countertops, a gas range, a wood ceiling, and no shortage of cabinet space. The kitchen is large enough to accommodate a huge island with plenty of seating. Directly adjacent to the kitchen is the living room, which is perfectly shaped for a large sectional couch. If you like to entertain family and friends, then this space is sure to please. The master suite is located downstairs and contains those amazing hardwood floors. Sitting behind two barn doors is the beautifully renovated master bath which features tiled floors, a large vanity with granite countertops, dual sinks, a tiled shower with deep garden tub, and a walk-in closet. Rounding off downstairs is a half bath, mud and a separate laundry room. Upstairs you will find 3 very spacious bedrooms and the 2nd bathroom. The second bathroom has tiled floors, a tiled shower, and dual vanities, so kids or guests don't have to share. With a little sweet equity and some imagination, this oversize yard has the potential to be an absolute showplace. Imagine a wrought iron fence enclosing the entire yard, a circled driveway around the home, and there is still plenty of space for that pool you have been dreaming of.
