Louisiana Plantation Estate

Wide gates welcome guests into this Louisiana plantation style estate’s sweeping drive, through a gateway and courtyard, gradually bringing them into a classic Southern center hall. While the essence of the main house is elegant and proper, thoughtful placement of walls and courtyards break up the weight of the estate into agreeable portions, softening the home’s more formal feel. Though the main house is undeniably classic, the weathered appearance of vine covered walls and buildings suggests a legacy that has grown over decades. This brings a natural balance that, like the home’s owners, is both modest and important.
