Stunning home situated on nearly one acre in Lake Charles! This gem underwent a complete renovation from the studs in 2021, offering tasteful modern amenities and style. At just under 3000sqft, the home provides 3 large bedrooms, including a huge master suite, along with 2.5 bathrooms and an office/flex room. The kitchen offers ample cabinet space and storage, quartz countertops, an island with seating, a gorgeous copper vent hood above the gas cooktop stove, double ovens and a dry bar. Appreciate the convenience of a considerably sized laundry room and a versatile butler’s pantry, which may also serve as a mudroom. Relax outdoors on the beautifully designed patio with cedar beams, equipped with high-quality motorized screens to keep out those pesky bugs and mosquitoes! Enjoy peace of mind with a new 30kW Generac home standby generator installed in June 2023, complete with a 10-year transferable warranty. The 1800sqft shop on the property is being sold as-is and given no value, with its roof and doors in need of replacement. Sellers will not make repairs to the shop. Additionally, the home is located in Flood Zone X, where flood insurance is typically not required.

Why Custom Wooden Furniture for your Home?

Receive the furniture of your dreams.

Custom wooden furniture is made to fit your specific needs and preferences, so you will get exactly what you want. You can choose the type of wood, design, and the color of finish or paint. You can also specify the dimensions and decide on any other features you want to include, so the furniture will fit and match your room perfectly. There is no wasted space. The furniture can be arranged and adjusted to optimize the flow of movement through the area, this is not possible with massproduced furniture pieces which are pre-made and difficult to modify.

The workmanship and materials are superb.

When you pay for custom furniture, you can choose high-quality wood and materials that woodworkers can form into a piece that is truly unique and reflects your personal style. Only skilled artisans are able to design and build custom furniture and you can always expect great results. The premium materials and careful construction techniques create sturdy and durable furniture, lasting for many years and decades, unlike mass-produced furniture, which is often made from cheap materials. Custom wooden furniture is a great investment. Choosing custom wooden furniture for your home or office is something you will never regret.You will have one of a kind pieces.

I AM REAL ESTATE

I am the basis of all wealth, the heritage of the wise, the thrifty and prudent.

I am the poor man’s joy and comfort, the rich man’s prize, the right hand of capital, the silent partner of many thousands of successful men.

I am the solace of the widow, the comfort of old age, the cornerstone of security against misfortune and want. I am handed down to children through generations as a thing of greatest worth.

I am the choicest fruit of toil. Credit respects me, yet I am humble. I stand before every man bidding him know me for what I am and possess me.

I am growing in value through countless days. Though I seem dormant, my worth increases, never failing, never ceasing. Time is my aid and population heaps up my gain. Fire and the elements I defy, for they cannot destroy me.

I am trustworthy. I am sound. The thriftless speak ill of me. The charlatans of finance attack me. Unfailingly I triumph and detractors are disproved.

I am producer of food, the basis for ships and factories, the foundations of banks. Minerals and oils come from me.

I am so common that thousands, unthinkingly and unknowingly, pass me by.

I am increasing in strength. The centuries find me younger. My possessors learn to believe in me, invariably they become envied. While all things wither and decay. I survive.
