Situated on just over 2.2 acres in South Lake Charles, this property offers a rare combination of wide-open space, improved infrastructure, and immediate functionality. The expansive, cleared acreage provides a beautiful setting with long sightlines, surrounding custom homes, and plenty of room to build while still maintaining privacy. The standout feature is the elevated 30 x 40 shop, thoughtfully constructed and built for durability and efficiency. Raised well above base flood elevation, the structure offers added peace of mind and long-term protection. Inside, the shop is fully spray foam insulated and features a finished interior with a kitchenette, half bath (plumbed), and generous workspace—ideal for storage, hobbies, or a business setup. The large roll-up door and open span layout make it highly functional for equipment, vehicles, or recreational use. A gravel driveway is already in place leading to the shop, along with electrical service and a water well, providing a strong head start for future development. Just beyond the shop, additional dirt work has been brought in, creating a designated area ideal for a future homesite. Located in Flood Zone AE, the shop has been elevated approximately two feet above base flood requirements, offering a significant advantage. A future home would not require the same elevation, allowing for more flexibility in construction. With utilities partially in place, a functional structure already built, and acreage ready for development, this property presents a unique opportunity to build your dream home while enjoying immediate use of the improvements. No septic system currently installed. Priced below recent appraisal, offering excellent value in today’s market.
