Classic custom home! Built in 2009, this Louisiana raised cottage was inspired by the work of A. Hays Town, and designed by renowned local architect Ellis Bullock, Jr. Set high overlooking Bayou Texar in the highly desirable Seville neighborhood, the house is full of custom details and beautiful finishes. The gracious foyer welcomes you into the home with ten foot ceilings, crown molding and views of the pigeonnier, which is one of three out-buildings in the backyard (two guest cottages round out the trio). You enter the main suite on the main floor through a lovely study, full of built-in bookshelves for the intellectual, but also with room for a TV for a private owner’s retreat. The main bedroom features a remote operated gas fireplace, and opens onto the wrap-around front porch. The main bathroom is large with a separate tub and shower and a private water closet. The expansive walk-in closet provides plenty of space for even the most extensive wardrobe. A small exercise room is off the main bedroom. Upstairs, are two additional bedrooms and full bathrooms and a large amount of storage under the eaves. Beautiful hardwood floors run throughout the main house, downstairs and upstairs. The ample wrap-around front porch allows for extra living space for outdoor dining and entertaining. All three of the main house bathrooms have marble surfaces, as does the kitchen and butler’s pantry. This house has only had one owner, who lovingly and meticulously maintained it. A pre-inspection revealed no defects. This house is turn-key!
