This timeless forever home awaits your family! A beautiful life is to be had here, in this one-of-a-kind home. In 1996, architect Kevin Gossen custom-designed this gracious family home and grounds with a purist's respect for the Acadiana classic cottage style with Creole influences, while giving his utmost attention to its structural integrity. As for the setting, one would never guess its location is central Lafayette, a few short minutes from Lafayette General, excellent schools, restaurants, shopping, entertainment and ULL. Across the street from the Vermilion and with its own stocked pond frontage, this gem is the ideal place for family and entertaining. The house boasts 10ft ceilings and is on a corner, on a cul-de-sac in a subdivision that is so quiet and tucked away that you may not even know about it. More... With deep galleries that wrap around the front and back of the home, its spaces outside and inside are stunningly finished with the details and materials that are indigenous to our area and in keeping with the style. Cypress, pine, mahogany, redwood, Old St. Louis brick, gas lights, wrought iron, etc. are showcased in the finely crafted features, such as the floors, custom doors, operable shutters, wood shake shingles, staircase, railings, built-ins, and on and on. The house itself has two large master suites... one up and and one down, two more charming bedrooms and a huge 942 sq. ft. bonus room over the three-car garage. Stately brick garden walls encircle the private backyard with gates that lead to the bank of the pond... yes, that property, too, is part of this beautiful .57 acre lot. Come visit. You will never want to leave!
