Property Description
If you love a home with a story to tell, 408 S. 7th St. deserves a look! Situated on a .22-acre lot within walking distance of downtown Lafayette, this historic home offers 5 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and character around every corner. A welcoming covered front porch sets the scene for slow mornings with coffee and relaxing evenings beneath the mature trees. Inside, wood floors, substantial trim, paneled doors, and decorative glass windows showcase its timeless charm. The bright living room opens to a formal dining room with a brick fireplace, ready for holiday dinners and everyday gatherings. The kitchen pairs white cabinetry and glass-front accents with a rich blue tile backsplash, farmhouse sink, and generous island with seating. An adjoining butler’s pantry featuring original tile adds storage, workspace, and a special piece of the home’s history. Two bedrooms on the main level and three upstairs offer a flexible layout, while the full basement provides ample storage. Outside, enjoy a shaded backyard, rear deck, and detached two-car garage. The roof was replaced in 2016, and the exterior was painted in 2024. Come for the porch, stay for the character, and enjoy having downtown dining, shopping, and entertainment close to home!
