Location, Location! Beautiful and completely renovated home in Bendel Gardens, NEVER FLOODED AND NOT IN A FLOOD ZONE! You will love location as it is close to hospitals, fine dining, all the festivals you could every want, and everything in middle of town. Driving up you will notice the new front elevation, so welcoming and inviting, seeming to say come on in. The 2 sets of faux doors on the porch really make a statement of Acadiana style architecture. Porch is topped off with slate tile flooring and bead board ceiling. If you wish to sit awhile you can pull up a rocking chair on the large front porch and have a glass of ice tea!Once inside you find a large foyer for that special piece of furniture you want to show off! Immediately to your left is a spacious formal living room and formal dining room. Both rooms are large enough to accommodate formal dining room sets and several big pieces of furniture. Beautiful original oak floors have been restored and are a highlight in these rooms. Plantation shutters have been added to every window in the home and are a beautiful addition. In the renovated kitchen you find exquisite travertine floors and custom painted cabinetry. It is highlighted with high end appliances and all from Tops in Lafayette: Viking commercial 6 burner cooktop, a 2 drawer Fisher-Paykel dishwasher, and a drawer microwave. Built in paneled refrigerator and farmers sink along with undermount lighting just sweeten up this kitchen. A huge home office leads into the master suite which is in itself very big. Master has its own gas fireplace. Office is accessible from a side door or back yard. So convenient if you work from home or have your own business! Guest bedrooms are large, one ensuite with its own bathroom and the 3rd with its bathroom directly across the hall from it. All bedrooms have large walk in closets, plantation shutters and wood flooring. No carpet at all in this home. Out back there is a screened in patio plus a large yard, storage room, a separate stand alone 2 car garage and a 2 car carport, so plenty of parking for everyone. All this topped off with a aluminum, electric, double access gate for security. More upgrades are all new windows, new electrical wiring, roof replaced 2009, 2 tankless hot water heaters, 2 Carrier Infinity HVAC systems, and all ductwork changed out in 2009. All plumbing replaced with PEX and new water supply line to home. Irrigation added in lawn and all landscaping. This will not last long! Call me today for your private showing or it will be TOO LATE!
