About This Home

As of April 2023

A Dozen Eggs ~ FREE at closing! Chickens & Sellers are moving but their South Lake Charles cottage needs new owners! Plenty of roaming room on the 0.26 acre lot located off of Big Lake Road, near Graywood. Not in the city limits, but conveniently located to schools, businesses and grocery stores. Quiet and little to no traffic on this dead end street as the neighborhood is somewhat secluded. Inviting and quaint front porch plus hassle free landscaping and shrubbery grace the Craftsman-like front entrance. Adjacent to the home is a 12x36 metal awning, ideal for covered parking or extra storage and connects to the side rear porch - which makes loading in and out in the rain or elements - a breeze. New vinyl wood like flooring and neutral paint colors. Remodeled kitchen including white subway tile backsplash, counters, cabinets, hardware and farmhouse sink. Off of the kitchen, a separate area that could be a dining area or an office - as it features windows overlooking the back yard. Two spacious bedrooms with lots of closet space. Indoor Laundry and storage area. New roof in 2021. Water well and mechanical sewer onsite. All measurements more/less.
