    What's special

    Distinctive two-story victorianSecond-floor balconyPrivacy-fenced patio areasTwo bathroomsFront and side porchesFormal dining roomAbundant natural light
    Built in 1900, this distinctive two-story Victorian is located in downtown Lake Charles and offers a rare combination of historic architecture, modern updates, income potential, and mixed-use versatility. The main residence features three bedrooms and two bathrooms with original pine floors in the living areas and bedrooms, tile in the kitchen and utility areas, high ceilings, and abundant natural light. The layout includes a formal living room and formal dining room, both of which could also function as office or flex space depending on buyer needs. The home is equipped with a dishwasher and washer/dryer, and the bathrooms have been updated. An additional one-bedroom, one-bath apartment is currently rented month-to-month. The property has previously been utilized as two separate short-term rental units, offering options for continued rental use, owner occupancy with rental income, or alternative configurations as permitted. Exterior features include front and side porches, a second-floor balcony, and privacy-fenced patio areas for both the main residence and the apartment. The property is situated in a growing downtown corridor near the courthouse and surrounding businesses. Zoning is already in place, allowing for residential, office, and income-producing use. Buyers are encouraged to verify specific use with the City of Lake Charles. Sellers are open to negotiating additional rear property, providing potential for expansion or future development. This property presents a unique opportunity to own a versatile downtown asset with historic character and multiple use possibilities. All measurements are more less. Pictures are staged both for an office as well as a residence or Airbnb property for visual reference.
