A striking first impression with curb appeal that commands attention - From the moment one arrives at 2618 Magnolia Lane in Lake Charles, you're welcomed in on the circular driveway to a timeless front elevation, mature landscaping and lush, green grass. This unbeatable location lies within sight of Lake Charles, Prien Lake Park, quite possibly the nicest boat ramp in the region and the area's casinos. Just inside of the front entry, the expansive foyer is home to the stairway on one side and the formal dining room on the other. With custom cabinetry throughout, more storage than most could fill, a large walk-in pantry and a breakfast area highlighted with large windows and an awesome view of the beautiful backyard, this property is ideal for hosting holiday gatherings and entertaining. The kitchen's proximity to the living room and outdoor areas makes it the ideal hub for or keeping an eye out on the littles while meal prepping. The large Master en Suite features a spacious bathroom with jacuzzi tub and a large closet. The upstairs is home to 2 generously sized bedrooms, a full bath, a balcony overlooking the living room and a decked, walk-in attic for even more storage. Whether you're wanting to grill, have a quiet afternoon swim, a weekend pool party or a peaceful evening under the stars, this is the backyard oasis to do it in. The inground, gunite pool with its tanning ledge and automatic nighttime light is a true show-stopper while the shop/boat storage makes awesome cover for the outdoor fun and activities. Lounging in nice comfy pool/patio furniture on the back patio deck with the remote-controlled shade is certain to become a regular evening to-do. The fully fenced-in yard is almost guaranteed to be where many birthdays and special occasions are celebrated. As if this wasn't enough for this price range and location, the upgraded garage floor and the heated/cooled storage room in the garage are simply lagniappe. This property sits in a highly sought after school zone and in an area where flood insurance is not required. Close to entertainment, golf, night life, restaurants, top-rated schools, lots of retail and shopping, and the lakeside Prien Lake Park which offers walking trails, playgrounds, picnic areas and some of the most stunning waterfront views on the lake, this one is a must see.
