Property Description

Nestled in the heart of the highly sought-after Margaret Place Historic District, this one-of-a-kind cottage offers timeless character and unmatched charm. Built in the early 1900s, this true historic gem sits directly across from ICCS and is just a short stroll from the lake and all of downtown’s vibrant amenities. With its location along the Mardi Gras parade route, you’ll enjoy a front-row seat to one of Lake Charles’ most beloved traditions. The home features classic red heart pine floors, soaring 10-foot ceilings adorned with decorative tile, and two Vermont Castings wood-burning fireplaces that add warmth and character. The kitchen blends vintage charm with functionality, boasting black and white tile flooring, open-faced cabinetry, an antique Chamber stove, and a nostalgic Big Chill refrigerator. A cozy breakfast nook, eat-in bar, and formal dining room provide inviting spaces for gathering and entertaining. The thoughtful layout includes a primary suite with a private bathroom, while the additional two bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bath. All appliances, including the washer and dryer, will remain with the home. Surrounded by beautiful, mature landscaping, the property also offers two storage buildings/workshops, an attached two-car carport, and the peace of mind that comes with a 24KW Generac whole-house generator. This truly unique home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in one of Lake Charles’ most cherished neighborhoods.
