Description

Welcome to Live Oak Townhomes, a small gated community nestled along the Vermilion River. Ideally located right off of Kaliste Saloom and just minutes from the best that Lafayette has to offer—including shopping, dining, and entertainment—this home is also only a short 5-minute drive to the airport. Featuring 1,829 sq. ft. with 2 spacious bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, it blends comfort, charm, and convenience. Upon entering, you'll immediately notice the beautiful hardwood floors that flow throughout the first floor. The large living room sits on one side, while the dining room is on the other—each filled with natural light and each boasting its own gorgeous brick fireplace that adds warmth and character to the space. Off the dining room, the kitchen offers generous counter space and a roomy pantry. From the kitchen, step into the charming screened porch, an ideal spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind in the evenings. The first floor also includes a bedroom, a full bathroom, and a laundry area for added convenience. Upstairs, a sunlit landing with a dormer window leads into the second bedroom—a spacious retreat with two dormer windows, dual closets, and an ensuite featuring double vanities and an additional closet for extra storage. Additional features include a covered carport located just outside the sunporch and a designated parking space in the lot directly across the street. The community offers a large green space and peaceful views of the Vermilion River, perfect for morning walks or evening strolls. With privacy, security, and a prime location, properties in Live Oak Townhomes rarely become available. Schedule your private showing today—you'll fall in love with this incredible home.
