Description

Tucked away right off Historic Main Street, this hidden gem is full of character and Southern charm. Just a short stroll from Bayou Teche and the vibrant heart of downtown New Iberia, this inviting cottage offers the perfect blend of historic appeal and modern comfort. Enjoy the outdoors from two covered porches, each offering serene views and multiple spots to relax and unwind. Step through the front porch into a spacious living room featuring large picture windows that enhance the space with natural light. At the end of the living area, the dining room shines with original long leaf pine floors—dating back to the 1890s and full of timeless elegance. Toward the rear of the home, you'll find a bright and functional kitchen with a charming original farmhouse sink, abundant updated cabinetry, and warm butcher block countertops. Just off the kitchen, the recently enclosed laundry room adds both convenience and additional square footage. The left wing of the home features three generously sized bedrooms, all with direct access to an expansive screened-in porch. This stunning outdoor space boasts peaked cypress ceilings & is ideal for rocking chairs, cozy furniture, or a relaxing hammock. The primary suite includes a beautifully remodeled ensuite bathroom and a versatile flex space that could serve as a nursery, home office, craft room, or reading nook. The third bedroom also has private access to the second fully remodeled bathroom, making it a great option for a second ensuite. Don't miss your opportunity to own this one-of-a-kind home just steps from New Iberia's lively downtown, restaurants, shops, and cultural attractions. Schedule your showing today!
