A Rare Once In A Lifetime Riverfront Legacy A truly extraordinary property, a magnificent French Colonial estate inspired by the celebrated Louisiana architect A. Hays Town. Set on expansive, beautifully landscaped grounds beneath majestic oak trees, this exceptional residence blends timeless Louisiana architecture with the serenity and beauty of its riverfront setting. A. Hays Town is one of Louisiana's most influential residential architects. A Tulane trained architect, Town became renowned for creating a distinctive regional style that drew from Louisiana's French, Spanish and Creole architectural heritage. His homes were celebrated for their use of French doors, shutters, exposed beams, brick and stone floors, pigeoneers, natural materials and a thoughtful relationship between the house, gardens and surrounding landscape. His work helped shape the look of modern Louisiana residential architecture and continues to influence homes throughout the state. That spirit is beautifully reflected in this custom built 1995 residence. Designed with extraordinary attention to detail, the home possesses the character and warmth of a timeless Louisiana estate while offering the comforts of a thoughtfully designed modern home. Gorgeous French doors and shutters surround the property, while exposed beams and stone flooring bring texture and authenticity to the interiors. Custom paint colors by award winning designer Louis Aubert add another layer of sophistication. The first floor primary suite offers convenience and privacy, complemented by a dedicated office and gracious living spaces that open toward the spectacular grounds. A new kitchen featuring marble counter tops adds modern functionality while remaining beautifully in keeping with the home's classic French Colonial character. The approach to the property is nothing short of dramatic, with a long circular driveway leading through the magnificent grounds to the residence. Lovingly cared for by the same family since 1995
