What's special

Some homes just have a personality of their own. This 1930s cypress cottage is one of them. Tucked away in the heart of Downtown Lafayette, this charming residence offers a rare combination of character, privacy, and walkability. Just steps from local restaurants, schools, the courthouse, and the energy of downtown, the location is every bit as appealing as the home itself. Rich in history and full of personality, the home has been beautifully updated while maintaining the charm that makes a 1930s cottage so special. Updated kitchen and bathrooms, along with a distinctive palette of Farrow & Ball paint colors, bring a fresh perspective to its historic roots. There's something undeniably special about a home that doesn't look or feel like everything else. Warm, inviting, and effortlessly charming, this downtown cottage is a rare opportunity to own a little piece of Lafayette's history with a style entirely its own.
