A hidden gem in the heart of Slidell! Nestled on nearly 3 private acres, this timeless 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath estate combines classic New Orleans charm with grand architectural details. The antique Old New Orleans brick exterior, estimated to be 150 years old - sets a striking tone, and the home’s elevation (approx. 22–24 feet above sea level) offers added peace of mind. A circular drive leads to a stately front entrance framed by arched windows and slate steps. Inside, a dramatic foyer opens to a stunning living area with 22-foot ceilings, a wall of windows, elegant crown molding, and one of two gas fireplaces. The open layout flows from the formal dining room to a bright kitchen with custom cabinetry, double ovens, a center island, and a breakfast nook that overlooks the screened-in pool area. The spacious primary suite features a sitting area, fireplace, and a spa-style bath with dual vanities, walk-in shower, and a jetted tub beneath a beautiful stained-glass window. You'll also find a private guest wing, dedicated office, and separate laundry room. Outdoors, enjoy a 5,000 sq. ft. screened enclosure with a sparkling pool, mature trees, and a covered patio with terracotta tile and classic white columns. A current termite contract is in force, adding extra peace of mind. Located minutes from I-12 and I-59, shopping, schools, and medical care, this one-of-a-kind property offers classic beauty, everyday comfort, and rare privacy. Schedule your showing today!
