About This Home

As of June 2025

Welcome Home to 234 East Vista Street! This sweet stone cottage is the very definition of charm and style. With 3 bedrooms and one level living, it has been lovingly cared for and very much cherished by its current owners. Located in the heart of the sought after Lafayette neighborhood, it is situated on one side of an expansive green space that provides a park-like atmosphere right outside your front door. Beautifully renovated throughout without losing its mid-century features, this home is filled with enchanting details in every corner. Outside, the backyard is perfectly designed for entertaining. It has a spacious deck, a screened-in room directly out the back door, and his and her sheds. The landscaping is dreamy with gorgeous trees and flowers everywhere you look; the hand-crafted archway is a must-see. There's even a chicken run and coop to have your own eggs, if you choose! Newer windows, doors, appliances...The updates are too numerous to mention. Close to Hospitals, UK, and everything Southland Drive has to offer, this home is the one you've been waiting for!
