About This Home
Own over 1.87 acres, an entire block, in the heart of Abita Springs. The grounds are a private garden paradise, adorned with statues, fountains, stone walkways, a brick wishing well, and lagoon bridges. This historic home was built in 1893 of native cypress, and exudes timeless Southern charm and craftsmanship—an estate rich in character and natural beauty. Upstairs, the home features heart pine floors, a 10-foot-wide cypress-trimmed center hall, and four spacious bedrooms. The upper porch showcases turned cypress columns, angular brackets, and wood balusters, true to its period aesthetic. While the lower floor's early use is unclear, it is believed to have once been open-air, featuring a stone cooking fireplace. The renovated kitchen, with its huge windows overlooking the beautiful gardens, is a serene retreat with terra cotta tile floors perfectly blending old-world beauty with modern comfort. The 40’ x 20’ artesian-fed pool was hand-dug in 1929 with marble mosaic tiles and pearlized Spanish tile walls, fed by a 1600-foot flow well, and surrounded by vintage lamp posts and stone islands. Other features include a tile-covered pool house, a 25-foot aviary, two decorative ponds, and lush plantings including azaleas, magnolias, wisteria, bamboo, and more.
A rare blend of Southern history, architecture, and botanical wonder—this home is truly one-of-a-kind.
