About This Home
Timeless Charm in the Heart of Lafayette 3 Bedrooms | 2.5 Bathrooms | Est. 1941 Step into a piece of Lafayette history with this enchanting Fair Park residence -- where old-world craftsmanship meets enduring elegance. From the moment of arrival, the quaint brick walkway, porch and charming foyer entryway make one thing clear — this is a property with a story to tell! Original hardwood floors and other original woodwork prove to be a testament to over eight decades of loving care. Amazing built-ins, deep window sills, and intricate millwork speak to a standard of craftsmanship rarely seen in modern construction. The living room anchors the home with a striking fireplace accented by bricks and multiple windows casting warm, jewel-toned light across space. This living room is a perfect retreat for every occasion! You’ll find even more classic brick accents and more beautiful windows in the spacious family room! The kitchen honors the signature character, while the formal dining room, showcasing two lovely built-ins, stands ready to host holidays and gatherings for years to come! The first-floor primary suite is a peaceful retreat with ample closet space. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms carry the same warmth and style and yes...more nifty built-ins! Two full bathrooms and a convenient half bathroom round out the floorplan. Large, comfortable flex room offers many possibilities...Whether you envision an oversized home office for remote work, a guest suite, or designated game room, there is room to make it your own. Good-sized unfinished basement with laundry area, bar area and even more storage is a blank slate. Detached garage with easy, full access from a parallel street, relaxing porch, and a nicely appointed back yard literally completes this entire package! Neighborhood streets are lined with similarly storied homes, placing you in one of Lafayette's most established and beloved places -- centrally located and convenient to everything! Homes like this — with genuine character, neat original details, modern twists, and a soul that cannot be replicated — come to market rarely. Don't miss your chance to own a true Lafayette classic!
