Don't walk, run! This south Lafayette gem is hidden in plain sight! Tucked away on a private dead-end road, not in a subdivision and with no HOA, this home offers an ideal blend of privacy, freedom, and prime location. Situated on nearly an acre in flood zone X, this is a rare find with the privacy of country living with the convenience of city access. If you love the outdoors, you won't want to miss out! Imagine starting your mornings on the east-facing front porch watching the sunrise, and unwinding in the evenings on the large covered back patio under the beautiful oak tree. Curb appeal does not disappoint with Magnolia trees, mature landscaping and picture perfect front porch. The oversized driveway leads to a 38x37 workshop that includes tons of storage, a dedicated office space wired for cable and Wi-Fi, and even an additional shed in the backyard for more space. The home features an open-concept layout with no carpet, generous living and dining areas, built in bookshelves with bench seating and storage, and a spacious primary suite with French doors that open to the beautifully shaded backyard. The primary bathroom includes a large walk-in closet, granite countertops, and a unique antique cast iron clawfoot tub with original die-cast dating of 1919! Zoned for the highly desirable Southside High and Milton school districts, with no flood insurance required, and qualifying for 100% financing this one is sure to check off all the boxes!
