Finding just the right Lafayette home in today’s market can require patience — and maybe some luck. (And I’d like to think an experienced local Realtor!)
How are you doing with your wish list?
If your search centers on finding a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, I have good news. A great option came on the market on Monday.
Please consider joining me at one of the open houses I’m holding at 3389 Sweet Drive this weekend. The house will be open both Saturday, February 1 (1-4pm) and Sunday, February 2 (11am-2pm). (Note the early time on Sunday is due to the Super Bowl.)
Here’s my most important touring tip for this property: Budget extra time. This home’s many features and design details encourage savoring, starting with the following:
Level Lot with Amazing Views. This is a rare combination in Lafayette, particularly when you combine this with neighborhood location and zoning for Burton Valley Elementary.
Space Use – and Flexibility (Indoors and Out). I particularly love the way the updated open concept interior is perfect for casual family living while the private backyard exterior becomes an extension of the home and provides multiple venues for dining, entertaining and play!
Updates! This house has well-designed updated spaces, including the kitchen, both bathrooms, and even a 2013 exterior remodel.
Storage Solutions – Built-ins and Closet Organizers. My personal favorite is the banquette that pulls double duty as low-rise divider to help define space within the great room. Plus, check out the drawers that are built into the bottom of the secondary bedroom closets.
Location. This home is located in a popular pocket of Lafayette that’s convenient to both downtown Lafayette and the heart of Burton Valley, where you’ll find trails, neighborhood pool clubs, youth sports fields and the Lafayette Community Center. Sweet Drive has its hilly moments, but this home sits where the road is flat.
The Real Difference:
I have been the top producing Lafayette Realtor every year since 2008. Last year I worked with buyers and sellers on over 60 transactions, most of which were for Lafayette properties. I’ve toured nearly every home on the market in Lafayette since well before 2003 — and staged many before getting my real estate license. In addition, I have spent my entire life in this town! Collectively, that’s a lot of homes to use when concluding what is typical in any given Lafayette neighborhood.
Here is what I know: What makes this home really special is not any one feature, or even a short list of them. What’s really incredible about this home comes from the sum of all its wonderful features and design details working together.
3389 Sweet Drive is a turnkey home that works across all ages, family constructs and almost any lifestyle. That’s unusual for any neighborhood in Lafayette.
If 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms works for you and your family, the answer is simple: Go to the open house. I think you’ll love what you see. And, if you think you may need more space, there are expansion possibilities too!
What I know for sure is that one lucky family is soon going to call this property their new home. Why not you?
