Set along the manicured fairways of the Lake Charles Country Club, this custom-built estate offers an exceptional blend of timeless architecture, refined interior design, and unmatched golf course views. Built by Russell Stutes in 2003, every detail of this 5,437 square foot home was thoughtfully designed and meticulously maintained to create a residence that feels both sophisticated and inviting. From the moment you arrive, the property makes a statement with beautifully curated landscaping, copper gutters, and a private stone and brick courtyard anchored by a custom syrup kettle fountain—creating a warm and memorable entrance. Inside, the home showcases rich character and craftsmanship throughout, with solid wood doors, warm finishes, and a French Country-inspired design. The great room serves as the heart of the home, featuring striking coffered ceilings and an open, elegant feel that flows seamlessly into the surrounding living spaces. A keeping room off the kitchen and a dedicated office provide both comfort and functionality, while the formal dining room is perfectly suited for entertaining. The kitchen is truly exceptional—designed for both everyday living and elevated entertaining. It features solid cypress cabinetry, granite countertops, a large eat-in island, pot filler, and premium appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator/ freezer, double convection ovens, 2 Bosch dishwashers, Viking gas range with griddle and large walk-in pantry. Wood plank ceilings and brick flooring add warmth, texture, and architectural interest, making this space as beautiful as it is functional. A spacious breakfast area overlooks the grounds and fills with natural light. The primary suite offers a private retreat with a tray ceiling, multiple oversized walk-in closets with custom built-ins, and a luxurious bath featuring dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and an air-jetted tub. Upstairs, you’ll find a large media room with an additional bedroom or flex space could be used as an oversized storage room—ideal for seasonal décor or long-term storage. The home offers abundant storage and thoughtful built-ins throughout. Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring a brick-paver patio, built-in grill and sink, custom outdoor shades and sweeping views across the 15th fairway toward the Country Club marina. Mature trees line the rear of the property, providing shade and privacy, while a custom welded iron fence frames the backyard beautifully. Additional highlights include a 22KW Generac generator, water softener & filtration system, oversized garage with dedicated golf cart and storage area, and meticulously maintained grounds that enhance the home’s curb appeal. This is a rare opportunity to own a true custom estate on one of the most desirable golf course settings in Lake Charles—offering timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship, and a lifestyle that is second to none. This is a home that must be experienced in person to truly appreciate—photos simply do not capture its scale, detail, and craftsmanship.
