Summerfield Place
Neighborhood in Houma, Louisiana
Terrebonne Parish 70360
Classic suburban residences outside major flood zones
This suburban subdivision features classic paved sidewalks and tidy yards decorated with flowering mulberry and towering pine trees. Most homes were built in the late 1990s and early 2000s, and many are renovated before going on the market. There is occasionally a small inventory of new construction or lots available. Residences are primarily ranch-style or New Traditional with neoclassical or Cape Cod-inspired exteriors. List prices typically range between $255,000 and $450,000, depending on the updates performed. New construction usually lists between $550,000 and $975,000. Summerfield Place is susceptible to flooding, but "the neighborhood is at a higher elevation, so most homes aren't in a heavy flood zone, save the street closest to Bayou Black," Fletcher says. Residents must purchase private flood and home insurance or enroll in the National Flood Insurance Program, though high deductibles have recently caused residents difficulty.

Summerfield Park is within walking distance
Summerfield Park is the closest recreation space, recently renovated to include three jungle gyms and two swing sets. While kids enjoy the playground, parents can relax at picnic tables shaded by oak trees. The park also features a popular nine-hole disc golf course. Several other green spaces are available across the community, like Mulberry Park and Willard Avenue Park, which both offer a play area and walking loop. A few miles west of Bayou Black, the Bayou Black Recreation Center offers a fitness area, pool, sports courts and a play area. It's close to several trails that wind through the marshes and grasslands surrounding Houma, like Mandalay Nature Trail.
