About This Home

As of October 2025

Back on Market due to Buyers Life Change. At No Fault of the Seller or The Home!

Step back in time with all the modern updates at 208 E Villanow Street, a beautifully restored historic home in the heart of downtown LaFayette. This 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence blends old-world charm with today's comforts, featuring original hardwood floors, four stunning fireplaces with original mantles, and soaring 11' ceilings throughout. The kitchen showcases an original corner cabinet, while both bathrooms retain built-in ''shelves'' on their classic board and batten walls.

Behind the scenes, no detail was spared—foundation repairs are complete, and everything else is new: roof, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, insulation, drywall, and more. The home retains its original structural siding and a fascinating piece of history—the driveway once served as an alleyway to deliver coal to the fireplaces. With an added office space and rich architectural character at every turn, this is downtown living with timeless soul and modern peace of mind.
