Property Description

Prepare to fall in love with this completely transformed 4-bedroom, 2-bath home situated on a large lot in the desirable University area of South Lake Charles! This charming home has undergone an extensive renovation from top to bottom, creating a fresh, stylish interior that feels almost brand new while keeping the warmth and character buyers love in an established neighborhood. Step inside to a bright and inviting floor plan filled with natural light from all-new windows and finished in a beautiful neutral palette that makes every room feel fresh and welcoming. The gorgeous kitchen is sure to be a favorite gathering spot, featuring warm wood cabinetry, crisp white countertops, classic tile backsplash, brass hardware, stainless appliances and a gas range. The combination of natural wood, white finishes and warm metal accents gives the space a timeless designer look that feels both current and comfortable. The renovation went far beyond cosmetic updates, with much of the home taken down to the studs and most of the sheetrock replaced and refinished. The electrical service and panel were replaced and the entire home was rewired, while a new HVAC system and ductwork were installed for added peace of mind. Plumbing was updated with new valves, a new on-demand gas water heater was added, and all interior doors, entry doors, windows, lighting fixtures and plumbing fixtures are new. Both bathrooms have also been beautifully refreshed with stylish new finishes, including a new tub with tiled shower surround in the guest bath and a new tiled shower in the primary bath. The exterior received just as much attention with a new roof installed in 2021, fresh exterior paint, metal fascia, vinyl soffits and new entry doors. Out back, the oversized yard provides plenty of room to entertain, garden, play, create an outdoor living area or simply enjoy having extra space. If you have been searching for a move-in-ready home where the expensive work has already been done, this one needs to be at the top of your list! With four bedrooms, extensive renovations, a large lot and a convenient South Lake Charles location in the University area, 728 Morningside Drive offers an impressive combination of charm, style and major improvements that is hard to find. Seller reserves curtains. Curtain rods belong to the stager and are also reserved.
