Description

Nestled at the edge of vibrant Lafayette, this dream country farmhouse blends rustic charm with modern convenience. On a nearly 2-acre level lot, it features a serene pond, mature hardwood trees, and a firepit for relaxation. The home exudes elegance with a stunning family room boasting a cathedral tongue-and-groove ceiling and engineered hardwood floors. A large dining room is perfect for gatherings, while the charming country kitchen makes every meal special. A spacious laundry room adds practicality, and the versatile layout includes a front bedroom and a hallway room, currently a walk-in closet but convertible to a small bedroom or office. The primary bedroom, a peaceful retreat, has a unique country-style bathroom with a whirlpool tub, walk-in shower, and tin ceiling. A second tiled bathroom ensures guest comfort. Recessed lighting and vinyl windows enhance modern appeal, with upgrades adding charm and functionality. Outside, a 24x24 carport, 18x24 workshop, 9x24 lean-to, and a 10x16 building with electricity offer ample space for hobbies or storage. An extra lot with electric, water, potential city sewer, and a driveway provides expansion possibilities. The lot invites gardening or enjoying the pond's tranquility in a well-established neighborhood. Minutes from Walmart, city concerts, Queen City Lake, and dining like Lucky Eye BBQ, this home offers countryside serenity with urban access. With room to grow, this farmhouse is a rare gem ready to be yours.
