Nestled within the prestigious gated community of Shadows Bend, this beautifully appointed home offers an exceptional blend of custom finishes and thoughtful design throughout. From the moment you step into the welcoming foyer, you'll appreciate the attention to detail -- custom drapery, Hunter Douglas blinds, and plantation shutters dress every window, while ceramic tile and rich hardwood floors flow seamlessly through the entire home. The open floor plan centers around a stunning kitchen featuring a large granite island with electric range, and a fabulous China cabinet, opening effortlessly to the den -- a warm and inviting space anchored by a gas log fireplace and custom built-ins. A separate dining room just off the kitchen makes entertaining a pleasure, highlighted by a beautiful chandelier that sets the perfect ambiance. The spacious primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a luxurious en suite bath boasting a double vanity with dedicated makeup seating area. The oversized walk-in closet spans the full length of the bath and is outfitted with separate custom built-ins in both the closet and bath areas. Two additional bedrooms each feature walk-in closets, while a second bath offers a double vanity -- ideal for guests. A dedicated home office adds even more versatility to this well-planned layout. Additional highlights include speakers, a whole-house generator, working exterior shutters, and a spacious laundry room with sink. Relax and unwind on the covered rear patio, perfect for Louisiana evenings. Conveniently located near downtown and City Park with easy access to Lafayette. Call to set up a showing!
