About This Home

As of June 2025

Charming Historic Home with Thoughtful Updates and Vintage TouchesWhere historic charm meets modern comfort, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on a generous lot in Opelousas' beloved historic district. Just minutes from downtown, the interstate, and everyday essentials, it offers rich character, thoughtful updates, and a neighborhood steeped in heritage. This isn't your typical cookie-cutter house--it's the kind of place with stories tucked into every corner.The living spaces are cozy yet functional, with two inviting living rooms, original hardwood floors, and a working gas fireplace. The kitchen keeps its vintage soul with updated original cabinetry, granite countertops, a commercial-style range, and a butler's pantry that adds both charm and extra storage. Thoughtful touches like under-cabinet lighting and a dishwasher blend seamlessly into the space.The bathrooms are true showpieces--both wrapped in 1930s Dorothy Draper wallpaper from the famed Greenbrier Hotel. Elegant tilework and high-end Kohler fixtures elevate the design while nodding to old-world elegance. The primary suite includes a beautifully integrated walk-in shower and stacked laundry.The home has been updated where it counts: a new roof in 2024, upgraded electrical panel, plumbing, attic insulation, and a Ring security system.The front porch is pure magic--wide, welcoming, and made for a swing. It's the kind of place where mornings stretch a little longer and evenings feel like something out of a Southern novel. Out back, the yard opens up with room to breathe, play, or plant something beautiful. Two sheds stand at the rear--one for firewood, the other a bit more rustic (read: likely not up to Airbnb standards, but full of potential).If you're looking for a home with soul--something beautiful and full of intricate design details--this is the one.
