Property InformationDescription

Historic home laden with charm and elegance in the heart of old Lake Charles. Built in 1929 from the finest hardwoods of the era, with 11 and 9 foot ceilings, stacked crown moldings and original oak floors throughout. Situated on a corner lot, 198 x 188, overlooking Bank Street surrounded by majestic oaks and shrubs that are on the original landscaping plans. The home boasts over 5200 square feet of living with 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 1 half bath. Generously proportioned sunroom off the main living and dining rooms. Kitchen has been remodeled and has a breakfast/keeping room. Kitchen has abundant cypress cabinetry, double ovens and brick accents. All bedrooms are conveniently located upstairs with front and rear staircases. Upstairs landing provides yet another living space in addition to a sleeping porch currently used as an art studio. Should you need more room the full attic could easily become a full third floor with dormers and windows already in place. Outside is an oversized gunite pool with a shallow/dogled for smaller children and is surrounded by brick, iron and privacy fencing and an additional storeroom/workshop. A virtual oasis in the city.
