Description
Escape to your serene sanctuary on 8.5 acres of natural beauty along the little bogue falaya river. originally a 670 sq ft cottage, this home underwent a major expansion in 2011 (added 724 sqft) with designs from renowned covington architect, randy aultman, adding a spacious great room/kitchen, fireplace, huge screened-in back porch, an extended front porch, and beautiful bathroom with shower. now offering 1,394 sqft of rustic elegance.
the home features heart pine flooring, antique cypress french doors and transoms, and custom birch exposed rafter tails. soaring cathedral ceilings with dirty top pine beams and energy-efficient marvin windows flood the open-concept space with natural light. cozy up by one of the two fireplaces—one wood-burning, the other natural gas—for a warm, inviting atmosphere.
great for relaxation and entertainment, this home is wired for security and features a great sound system with vanishing speakers in interior/outside speakers for both porches, setting the perfect ambiance. both porches feature tongue and groove ceilings and floors, with the screened-in back porch wonderful for year-round enjoyment. eco-friendly features include a green geothermal system for heating and cooling and a 17 kw generac generator for backup power.
for those seeking room to grow, architectural plans are available to expand the home into a 3-bedroom, 3-bath sanctuary with a luxurious primary suite. the property also includes a custom architecturally designed barn, built with the same high-quality materials as the home, offering endless possibilities for hobbyists or storage. the creek room, a small screened-in building with electric and water, is ready for converting into a guest room, studio, or peaceful retreat.
certified as a wildlife habitat, the property provides stunning natural scenery, river access, and thriving wildlife, creating a perfect retreat for nature enthusiasts. located just 5 minutes from downtown covington and 45 minutes to metairie and new orleans, this unique property offers tranquil seclusion and convenient access to city amenities.
