Property Description
Welcome to an extraordinary circa 1834 Antebellum home that has been meticulously restored to blend historic grandeur with modern luxury. Set on 8.47 picturesque acres, this 5,311 sq. ft. estate offers five bedrooms, including a primary suite on the main level, and four additional bedrooms upstairs. Every inch of this property exudes craftsmanship. The kitchen features an exquisite island crafted from reclaimed cypress flooring from the original 1834 structure, quartzite countertops, a 48'' Wolf gas range, 48'' Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, and a warming drawer, all designed for both functionality and elegance. The home's charm is enhanced by four original gas fireplaces, each restored with ceramic gas logs dating back 50-60 years, while two additional wood-burning fireplaces add warmth to the screened-in porch and family den. The primary bathroom boasts heated flooring under the cabinetry, complemented by luxurious Edgar Berebi hardware, while the upstairs guest bathrooms showcase marble showers and countertops. Designed by renowned architect Allen Bacque and restored by Freddie Decourt of Iberia Building, the home maintains its original charm while benefiting from modern renovations completed in 2015-2016, including a new metal roof, fully rerun gas lines & water lines. The lower front porch was replaced in 2024, ensuring longevity while preserving its timeless aesthetic. Outside, the estate is a breathtaking retreat, featuring a fully restored barn, a separate two-car garage, workroom, and including a registered historic oak tree (de Lassus Oak, St. Landry Parish). The expansive landscaping is meticulously maintained with a full irrigation system and an architectural plan for further development, while a full-home generator ensures uninterrupted comfort. From its original servant's entrance leading to the historic master suite to its beautifully restored period details, this home is a true masterpiece of Southern elegance.
