South Lake Charles Stunner with Custom Touches & a One-of-a-Kind Bonus Garage! Step into easy living in this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath patio-style home in a prime South Lake Charles location! Built in 2008 and thoughtfully updated, this move-in-ready gem offers approximately 1,433 sq ft of inviting, functional space--plus one seriously cool surprise in the garage. The curb appeal starts strong with a custom slate walkway leading to a welcoming covered entry. Inside, natural light floods the open living and dining areas, anchored by a well-appointed kitchen with ample counter space and cabinetry. The split floor plan offers privacy for the spacious primary suite, complete with a generous walk-in closet and dual vanity bath. Now for the showstopper: the garage has been semi-transformed into a fully climate-controlled bonus space with a mini-split A/C unit and an air curtain--perfect for keeping the door open without letting the bugs in. Whether you're dreaming of a man cave, gym, studio, or lounge, this flex space delivers. Need the garage back? It's an easy conversion. Out back, the covered patio is ready for morning coffee, weekend grilling, or simply unwinding. And yes--the seller is leaving those fleur-de-lis planters, because they just belong here. Key Features You'll Love: * All-electric, including garage * Slate tile front entry for extra curb appeal * Centerline Lifetime Foundation Warranty * Covered front and rear patios * Quiet, well-kept neighborhood with easy access to everything. This is one of those rare homes that doesn't just meet the checklist--it surprises you. Flexible space, low-maintenance layout, and thoughtful upgrades make this one hard to beat.
