Sugar Mill has new construction and 21st-century homes
Sugar Mill offers newer construction while remaining close to Houma's amenities. "The area has some of the higher-priced luxury homes in Houma. You'll see doctors and lawyers. It's right off 311, and unfortunately, it is hit or miss with the flood zones," says Realtor Beau Toups with Century 21 Action Realty. The community is excellent for those who may want a larger or more updated home but don't want to be too far from the action. It's also home to some excellently rated schools and well-kept parks, so families may be attracted to moving to this section of Houma.
