About This Home

2034 Charvais Street

Set along the scenic banks of Contraband Bayou, this one-of-a-kind waterfront estate delivers an extraordinary blend of luxury, scale, and resort-style living on approximately 1.77 acres. Framed by an impressive collection of 132 palm trees, the approach creates a grand, unforgettable first impression, leading into a property that is truly unmatched in both presence and design. With over 500 feet of bulkheaded waterfront, the grounds capture sweeping panoramic views while offering direct access for boating and recreation. A palm-lined green space stretches toward the water, creating a breathtaking visual corridor that feels more like a private resort than a residence. The multi-stall boathouse is equipped with lifts and a rooftop observation deck, while the expansive waterfront promenade provides the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying sunsets along the bayou. Outdoor living is elevated to an entirely different level with a massive covered entertaining area featuring a full outdoor kitchen, oversized built-in bar, grilling stations, and a custom fireplace. Just beyond, the brick courtyard is a showpiece, centered around a statement fountain and surrounded by custom statues, benches, and planters that create a timeless, almost European estate feel. Every inch of the exterior has been thoughtfully designed to maximize both beauty and functionality, including a garden shed, extensive storage, and even a private golf driving pad and private boat launch. Inside, the home offers approximately 4,821 square feet of living space with a layout designed for both everyday comfort and grand-scale entertaining. The main living area is striking, with soaring ceilings, dramatic arched windows, marble flooring, and a stately fireplace that anchors the space while natural light pours in from every angle. The kitchen is equally impressive, featuring marble countertops, high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, and expansive prep space. It opens seamlessly into a warm and inviting keeping room with hardwood flooring, built-ins, and its own fireplace, creating a more relaxed gathering space within the home. A separate sunroom with a bold black-and-white checkered floor and walls of windows offers a unique and vibrant space overlooking the courtyard. The primary suite is a true retreat, offering generous proportions and a luxurious bath complete with marble tile flooring, dual vanities, soaking tub, walk-in shower, and an oversized walk-in closet. The closet and dressing areas are thoughtfully designed with built-in organization and ample space, reflecting the scale and attention to detail found throughout the home. Additional interior spaces continue to impress, including large secondary bedrooms with hardwood flooring, plantation shutters, and abundant natural light. Custom built-ins, detailed millwork, and intricate trim work are carried throughout, giving each room its own character while maintaining a cohesive, high-end aesthetic. Unique design elements such as custom wallpaper accents and architectural detailing elevate the home far beyond typical construction. Upstairs, the flexibility continues with three spacious bedrooms and exceptional storage, including an oversized 20 x 30 walk-in closet. A partially finished attic space provides the opportunity to create a large media or entertainment room, further expanding the home’s already impressive footprint. From the grand interior living spaces to the meticulously designed outdoor environment, every aspect of this estate was created to impress. Located just minutes from downtown, this property offers a rare combination of convenience, privacy, and a true waterfront lifestyle. With its scale, craftsmanship, and unforgettable setting, this is one of the most distinctive and awe-inspiring properties on Contraband Bayou. This is a property that simply cannot be fully captured in photos—the scale, detail, and one-of-a-kind setting must be experienced in person.
