4850 Moss St, Lafayette, LA 70507

Amazing and special are the words that describe this home. The original home was built in approximately the 1890's in the Opelousas area, then was moved to this location in 1989. At that point, both bathroom wings were added to the home featuring claw tubs & separate tiled showers. There is original wood flooring through most of the house, along with full length floor to ceiling windows across the front of the home that you can actually walk through out on to the huge front porch. Off of the master suite is a wonderful study with French doors closing it off from the living area. There are 2 brick count Rumford fireplaces with gas logs, one located in the master bedroom and one located in the living room. There is an enclosed side porch that brings the outside indoors. The kitchen features antique cypress custom cabinets, a seated island, huge side butler's pantry for storage, beautiful oak wood flooring, and a 5 month old stainless Kenmore range/oven. There is an additional small bedroom and bathroom off of the kitchen with an entry door for a mother-in-law or office area. Right off the kitchen area is a huge back enclosed porch with its own AC unit to keep the area cool for entertaining or relaxing. If additional bedrooms are needed for your family, you could finish the 2 upstairs bedrooms (plumbing and electrical already exist). The back porch is very spacious and it runs the entire length of the house, plus it has been extended to be able to walk over to the guest quarters that was added in different time intervals since the current owners moved into the home in 1995. The guest quarters feature a small kitchen, living area, bathroom (that needs floor repair), and a bedroom. The backyard has an English garden with a pond and greenhouse that need some work. There is a three car carport that leads to the side entry way of the house. A whole house generator has been added to the home to be prepared for any storm. Square footage does not include the guest quarters.
