About 140 Lafayette Ave
Make a Splash This Summer in Bowling Green! This charming 3-bedroom brick beauty is more than a home—it’s your very own private oasis! Beat the heat in the sparkling in-ground salt water pool, surrounded by raised Versetta stone garden beds(and retainer walls) ready for your summer blooms or veggie patch. Hosting friends? The backyard is party-perfect with a spacious patio, stone fire pit, and even a pool house complete with a half bath and kitchenette—no wet feet tracking inside here! Need space for hobbies or storage? The oversized detached garage (with a 3 phase welding machine plug!) is calling your name, and there’s an additional shed tucked around the side. The fully fenced yard keeps pets and kiddos safe, while the 16ft Viking automatic gate(wired for post lights & driveway lights) welcomes you home with ease—straight to your garage or backyard getaway. Inside, you’ll love the granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, hardwood floors, cozy fireplace, and flexible living spaces including a den and a separate living room. The laundry has its own utility room that leads straight to the backyard, making chores and pool days a breeze. But it’s not just the house—it’s the lifestyle. Sip your iced coffee on the front porch with dual ceiling fans spinning as you return from a stroll to The Mix House. Friendly faces, golf cart rides around town, and a small-town charm that makes everyone feel like a local—this is Bowling Green living at its best.
