Contract contingent upon buyer selling current property - continue to show. This grand Coastal Acadian-style home is reminiscent of the genteel Southern estates of times past. Situated on a full acre directly across from the 8th hole at Lake Charles Country Club Golf Course in South Lake Charles. The exterior of the home is constructed of brick salvaged from Lake Charles' historic Majestic Hotel. The deep, shaded front porch, which runs the length of the home, will greet you upon arrival. You'll enter through the grand foyer, which separates a large formal dining room that just begs to host every holiday party and family gathering, and the elegant formal living room which proudly boasts an 1800s-era Italian marble fireplace and custom plantation shutters. Upon passing through to the rear of the home, you'll find a large and well-appointed kitchen with granite counters, stainless appliances, a long island, a walk-in pantry, and a breakfast nook with a bay window overlooking the the back patio and yard. The kitchen is open to a 27 x 20 family room, with a 2nd fireplace and a "Preachers Bar" with retracting doors. The entire back of the home boasts floor-to-ceiling windows for beautiful views of the back yard and the rear porch that runs the length of the rear of the home. The spacious master suite is on the lower floor, and two additional bedrooms, along with a potential 4th bedroom, a full bath, and a bonus area are located on the upper level. The flex space on the 2nd floor would be perfect for an office or a playroom, and a smaller room off of one of the bedrooms could act as a 4th bedroom or a study/media room. The laundry/utility room is located on the lower level and includes a mop sink, a powder room, and an entire wall of cabinets for storage. A cart path to the golf course is located just about 50-yards west of the home. Some of the less romantic (but equally important) features include: 2 HVAC systems are 1-year and 3-years old, a new roof in 2021, reglazed windows, and is located in flood zone X (where flood insurance is not typically required). Storage space is beyond abundant in this home, with cabinets, walk-in closets with built-ins, and dedicated attic storage areas throughout. A part of the one-acre lot is fenced to accommodate kids and dogs, leaving a large and wide-open park-like area that is perfect for parties and BBQs.
