About This Home
Set behind a private drive and framed by mature oak trees, this one-owner estate sits on 5.12 acres of beautifully established land in Sulphur—offering space, privacy, and infrastructure that is increasingly hard to find. Built in 1986 with forward-thinking construction, the home features 6-inch exterior walls and extended 3-foot eaves, creating a structure rooted in durability. In 2018, a metal roof and rear guttering were installed, along with replacement of the interior HVAC system. Inside, the four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath layout blends warmth and function, highlighted by a brick wood-burning fireplace, central vacuum system, cedar closet, dual hot water heaters, and a built-in sound system with wired speakers. The kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, oven/range, and microwave, all of which remain, along with all curtains, rods, and window blinds. An enclosed, tiled sunroom adds flexible living space overlooking the property. Beyond the home, the land truly sets this property apart. A 24 x 60 detached workshop—once used as living quarters—is fully plumbed with electricity and served by mechanical sewer, creating opportunity for a studio, workspace, or extended-use structure. An additional 24 x 40 storage building and a separate tractor shed provide even more utility space, and an exterior RV plug is already in place. Public water services the property. The setting, scale, and improvements make this a rare opportunity for buyers seeking acreage with substance—not just land, but a lifestyle already built. Seller does not currently carry flood insurance. Buyers to verify flood zone and insurance requirements.
