2716 W Newell Ave

Picture perfect charm! With standout curb appeal and thoughtful upgrades inside and out, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath Lafayette home on .21 acre with a an additional 100 sq ft. detached office is the kind of place that just feels good from the moment you arrive. Out front, a white fence and blooming rose bushes welcome you home. Inside, classic charm meets modern comfort with hardwood floors, loads of natural light, and a flowing traditional layout that lives much larger than expected. The kitchen is a true standout—featuring beautiful blue cabinetry, white stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a peninsula with bar seating for easy dining. It opens directly to the back patio, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow that’s perfect for entertaining or casual weeknight dinners outside. The backyard is designed for everyday enjoyment: a large grassy area, patio for outdoor dining, vegetable garden, play structure, and a well for efficient watering. There’s also a stylish detached office shed—ideal for remote work, creative projects, or quiet retreat space. And the neighborhood? Truly special, conveniently located close to town and top rated Lafayette schools. This is more than just a house—it’s a lifestyle, and a place you’ll love to call home.
