About This Home

As of June 2023

In the beautiful Kirby Street area of Lake Charles, La. lives this expansive, custom built, one story mid 20th century home which offers open formal living spaces, butler's pantry, a very private master suite, over sized bedrooms, abundant storage, original, refinished hardwood floors, some ship lap walls and new in-ground swimming pool. Bedrooms this large are hard to find these days. The original architectural designs of the original owner Frank Assunto remain untainted; yet there is still opportunity for a new owner to add personal touches to make this historic home his own. The home has been assigned favorable flood zone of "X" which typically means flood insurance is optional and affordable if desired. This artsy home is very near several arts centers, parks, police and fire stations, downtown retail and business area. Ask your realtor to point out the one of a kind safe in the home. In fact, there are several one of a kind items you won't want to miss. Willing to consider backup offers.
