A. Hays Town architecture is obvious at first glance when approaching this stunning 1.78 acre setting located in the heart of Lafayette. True to its architecture design, this home has fabulous front and back porches, a bricked courtyard with a fountain that was purchased in New Orleans, huge saltwater gunite pool with brick surround, brick front walkway from the street, French doorways with full length working shutters, 50 year fire retardant cedar roof with converted all metal vents & copper flashing, and custom cypress encased windows. This home has a wide entry breezeway that goes from the front to the back of the home, and wide antique long leaf pine flooring that goes into the formal living room, dining room and the master bedroom & bathroom wing. The kitchen features massive, hand hewn, old pine beams, cypress cabinets, brick flooring, a large island, and custom cypress encased floor to ceiling windows. The stately, yet very relaxing living room has a majestic masonry fireplace with old cypress beams on the ceilings, and a very custom cypress mantel rarely seen in other homes. The master suite includes French doors that lead to the courtyard, a fireplace with gas logs, double crown molding and a spectacular view of the courtyard and pool. The 4th bedroom is located downstairs with a cedar closet and full bathroom that is presently being used as a study. The upstairs has 2 large bedrooms with 2 full bathrooms, plus a walk-in storage area off of the landing. This home also has a 30kw natural gas generator for those emergency situations.
