Description

Location, location, location! First-time buyers and LSU parents -- this is it. Located in the highly desirable Pelican Lakes community, this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a large open floor plan with seamless flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas -- perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The layout is ideal, with the primary suite situated on one side of the home for privacy and the three additional bedrooms located on the opposite side, creating a functional split floor plan perfect for families or roommates. This home is exceptionally clean and truly move-in ready -- it does not need a thing. Granite countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms, a gas range, tile flooring in the baths, and a massive custom-built closet that is truly a girl's dream closet with incredible storage and organization. You will not find a cleaner, more turnkey home with a closet like this anywhere else. The fully fenced side yard and patio provide a private outdoor space ideal for pets and relaxing evenings. Just minutes from LSU and surrounded by restaurants, gyms, and shopping, the location is hard to beat. Pelican Lakes residents enjoy a community pool, lake, and fitness center. Situated in a growing area and not in a flood zone, this property offers both convenience and peace of mind. With four bedrooms, this is also a strong investment opportunity -- perfect for college parents looking to purchase a home for their student while building equity. Financing options make it even more attractive: FHA with 3.5% down (approx. $10,500) or Rural Development with 0% down. With an acceptable offer and seller-paid closing costs, eligible buyers may be able to move in with little to no money out of pocket.
