314 S Henderson St, Elton, LA 70532

PRICED BELOW APPRAISAL! Let the prairie winds blow you down a small town road to the corner of S. Henderson and 3rd in Elton, LA, right next to a rice field or (some years) a crawfish pond. Here stands a classic red brick ranch, sturdy and meticulously kept, ready for gatherings and memory-making on a 1 acre tree-shaded lot. You’ll love the views from the front porch and the zydeco-tinged breezes on the screened-in back porch. This convenient location -- on the cusp of wide-open spaces -- is minutes from Kinder, Coushatta, and Jennings and just about an hour’s drive to Lake Charles, Lafayette, or Alexandria. The spacious entry/dining area leads right into the interconnected kitchen/breakfast nook and cozy living area with gas fireplace and maple bookcases. Low maintenance wood paneling and ceiling beam details give the space warmth and character. The real wood cabinets with stained glass details, gas cooktop, double oven, and views of the backyard make the kitchen both functional and aesthetic. The breakfast nook is open to the living room and serves up views of the screened-in porch and lovely backyard. The 2-car carport and ample laundry area are accessible from a hallway adjacent to the living room. On the left side of the entry, you’ll find the 3 very spacious bedrooms, all with large closets and built-in drawers and shelves, and 2 full baths. The paneling throughout the bedrooms is in excellent condition. Leave it as-is, or paint it your preferred hue for a fresh and modern look. Either way, this 1960s era, one owner ranch is sure to please. The property includes a large metal boat or travel trailer cover and a metal shed. There is room for other structures as needed for hobbies or even a home office. You’re going to love this community and this fine property – priced below appraisal. Schedule your tour today!
