About This Home

2834 Highway 44 Highway

Nestled between the vibrant cities of New Orleans and Baton Rouge lies the enchanting Creole "Perique" Farm House, a captivating retreat dripping with history and charm. Dating back to around 1840, this classic French Creole-style home was lovingly crafted by a German Creole family on 4.25 acres along the banks of the majestic Mississippi River in St. James Parish. Boasting a timeless design with a three-bay front and spacious rooms, the residence exudes authenticity. With ceiling heights reaching 10'7", the main living areas offer a sense of grandeur, while the expansive front porch provides a serene spot to soak in the beauty of historic River Road and the river beyond. Acquired by its present owner in 2006, the property underwent a meticulous restoration and renovation in 2008, seamlessly blending modern comforts like central air, a modern kitchen, and two bathrooms with its historic charm. Outside, the property is adorned with historic "pieux" fencing in the front yard and suitable fencing in the rear, preserving its authentic allure. Conveniently located just minutes away from iconic landmarks such as Houmas House Plantation and Manresa, this estate offers both convenience and tranquility. Whether used as a full-time residence or a weekend retreat, the Creole "Perique" Farm House promises a lifestyle of unparalleled refinement and relaxation. Moreover, with Oak Alley and Laura Plantation just a stone's throw away across the river, this property embodies the essence of Southern living at its finest. Experience the allure of Louisiana's past while embracing the comforts of modern luxury in this exquisite Creole masterpiece.
