Secluded Custom-Built Farmhouse on 17+ Acres with Apartment in the Heart of Zachary. Rare blend of peace, privacy, and convenience sitting on mostly cleared and level land, this unique property offers the serenity of the countryside just minutes (3 miles!) from top-rated Zachary schools, restaurants, and shopping. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm, rustic charm—rich with pine and cypress beams, crown molding throughout, and imported Spanish Saltillo tile flooring. The inviting living room features a wood-burning fireplace with a brick hearth and custom cypress mantle, all under cathedral cypress ceilings. The open floor plan flows into the kitchen & dining area. The kitchen includes stainless steel appliances—including a Viking stove—custom cabinetry, and direct access to a spacious screened porch where you can relax and take in sweeping views of your private land. This 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath home also features a dedicated office and a massive bonus room that connects the home to the rear garage. The garage itself offers a flexible layout—ideal as-is or easily converted into a horse barn with concrete floors, a drive-through roll-up door, ceiling fans, heating & cooling, a tack room, and even an anti-fly spray system. Above the garage is a private, fully equipped apartment complete with a full kitchen, bathroom, laundry area, and screened-in porch with beautiful views of the back acreage—perfect for guests or in-laws. Located in Flood Zone X, this is a truly one-of-a-kind opportunity to enjoy the lifestyle of country living without sacrificing proximity to the city.
