Overview

Breath-taking riverfront luxury retreat, impeccably appointed and situated on just under 2.5 lush acres, a mere walking distance from River Ranch. The vision for this exclusive home was one of laidback luxury with an appreciation of nature and art and the commitment to creating comfortable ideal spaces for making great memories and incredible food with family and friends. This estate property offers large rooms, tall ceilings, authentic materials and highquality finishes, indoors and out. Within the home are 5 generous bedrooms with 5 full baths (primary bedroom and 1 guest bedroom are downstairs), 2 half-baths, a large living room with 26 ft high cathedral ceilings/wood beams, a large formal dining room, a keeping room with eat-in dining, a stunning main kitchen with La Cornue range, a large island, slabs of quartzite countertops, and a secondary Cajun kitchen, a well-appointed bar, an army of large closets and a climate controlled interior walk up storage room with motorized lift. Outside are multiple entertaining areas and porches, such as an outdoor fireplace with covered patio, a large outdoor kitchen (with new Fire Magic grill plus much more), an open outdoor patio, and a deck... all beautifully finished and connected by brick walking paths. A boathouse with lifts and a boat dock make river cruising easy and carefree! The stellar views of the bend in the river are arguably the best around and the undulating lush landscape is spectacular! Each and every room, inside and out delights you with artistic nuances and ease of living. The new estate, built in 2012, was masterfully developed by Mike Landry by seamlessly incorporating the original charming home, a 170- year- old raised Cajun cottage, into the blueprints of a new expansive home that would total 7300+ living square feet. A very specific vision guided by the owners was simply this: their home was to be a relaxing, inviting sanctuary that would provide entertaining spaces for small or large groups of friends and family, to encourage the enjoyment of nature's gifts on that spot of earth, and to showcase those ideals in the various artistic features of their home. But most of all, it was to be as comfortable as it was beautiful. With that accomplished, the care and maintenance of this home has been second to none. Pull into the semi-circular drive and start relaxing as you leave behind the noise and bustle of city life. The expanse of billowing, flowering shrubs and annuals along with the mature native trees dotting the grounds was designed by local landscape architect Lue Svendson and is the perfect backdrop for this beautiful home. A feeling of wonder and anticipation seeps in as you become aware of the many delights of this peaceful country estate. Frances of the Vermilion, a commissioned carved steel statue by local artist Russell Whiting, greets you as you unlatch the low iron courtyard gate. She is the first of many art pieces by talented local artisans and craftsmen that grace the home... stamping it with its unique character. Panning from left to right, you notice the left wing which now houses two connected garages (4-car total) and the original Acadian cottage home-now renovated (rewired, etc). Raised, it has a porch with a bank of French doors that allow a peek of the dining room within, featuring a 16' long reclaimed cypress table and coordinating buffet custom-designed and built by Miles Peterson. This 2-story house, now the left wing of the new home, is completely renovated and expanded, now totaling 4 bedrooms (1 down and 3 up), four full baths, a half-bath and a large community space. It also boasts a secondary kitchen (the Cajun kitchen), a secondary laundry room and extra closets. To your right is a romantic pigeonnier, designed, in this case, for the practice of potting and repotting seedlings and maturing plants. It is replete with sink, refrigerator, and potting area....and, true to its historical purpose, is the beloved home to a sweet little nest
