Nestled in the cul de sac, this custom-built French country home exudes elegance and privacy.
A magnificent wrought iron gate marks the entrance, leading to a winding driveway that
meanders through the woods, setting the scene for the secluded 7 acres in a park-like setting.
Here, walking and riding trails carve through the land, offering peaceful escapes into nature.
Despite its secluded feel, the property is conveniently located just 5 minutes from central Moss
Bluff and a mere 15+ minutes to Lake Charles, offering the perfect blend of privacy and
accessibility. The residence itself is a testament to its thoughtful care and design, featuring 5
bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms (including studio apartment), an office, and an upstairs bonus room,
all meticulously kept to maintain its like-new condition.

The heart of the home, a chef's kitchen, overlooks a spacious living room, seamlessly
connecting to both a formal dining area and a cozy keeping room. Central to the kitchen's
functionality and elegance is an extra-large island and snack bar, offering ample seating and
workspace. It is equipped with two copper sinks, a pot filler for convenience, and a wealth of
storage options.

Adding to the charm of this true southern home, the hewn wood floors display the natural beauty
of magnolia and oak trees, personally harvested from the property.
A wrought iron banister leads to the upper level where the home unfolds into an expansive
media room, perfect for movie nights or enjoying sports events in grand style. Adjacent, a hobby
room awaits, offering a secluded space for creativity and projects. The convenience of an
additional bathroom on this level enhances the functionality of the space!

The master suite serves as a sanctuary of luxury and comfort, featuring a curbless walk-in
shower, dual sinks plus a separate vanity area, and an air jetted 2-person tub equipped with
heated backrests for ultimate relaxation. Complementing the suite is an expansive walk-in
closet, complete with built-ins and a central island, ensuring ample storage and organization.
The estate's allure extends to its beautifully landscaped front and back yards, each adorned with
two soothing water fountains. The spacious back patio offers an ideal setting for outdoor
entertainment, surrounded by the natural beauty of the estate. Practicality meets luxury with the
inclusion of an oversized 2-car garage and two circle drives, ensuring ample space for vehicles
and guest parking.

A porte-cochere seamlessly connects the main home to the self-contained studio apartment,
complete with its own bathroom and kitchenette-- a perfect retreat for overnight guests or a
private studio space. The home is fully equipped for modern living, wired for security and
surround sound, and includes a central vacuum system for ultimate convenience.
Eco-conscious and cost-effective, the home boasts solar panels and is prepped for the
installation of a whole home generator, ensuring continuous power and efficiency. Architectural
shingle roofing with tile ridge caps provides the finishing touch, combining durability with
aesthetic appeal, to this remarkable residence. Further enhancing the property's value is a
30'x60' workshop, a total of 30'x100' when including the shop's covered back porch and front
2-car carport. The shop also features a lean-to for your outdoor storage!
With almost 4600 living sqft/ 6661 total sqft/ 7+/- acres, a home of this stature and quality
cannot be replicated at this price. Every inch of this estate has been crafted with precision and
an eye for detail, making it a unique find in today's market. This residence is not just a home -
it's a retreat.
