A once in a lifetime opportunity tucked away in one of Lafayette's most exclusive enclaves - approximately 4.1 breathtaking acres with river frontage, two ponds, and a timeless Southern home that feels like a private park, all just minutes away from the heart of Lafayette. This unique estate, set in the coveted Fernewood subdivision, offers the rare gift of total peace and privacy without giving up city convenience.Classic curb appeal greets you with a stately brick exterior, full-length porches, and iconic white columns that stretch across the front and back of the home.Inside, you'll find over 9,200 square feet of conditioned space spread across three levels -- all connected by a residential elevator. The layout is elegant and functional, with five generously sized bedrooms (each with an en-suite bath), a formal dining room with French doors, a dedicated office, and a walk-out basement with wet bar that has hosted everything from game nights to wedding receptions.The heart of the home is the chef's kitchen, featuring custom cabinetry with tons of pullouts, granite countertops, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Thermador gas stove, double ovens, and multiple seating areas--perfect for gathering. Throughout the home, you'll find antique pine floors reclaimed from a New Orleans warehouse, soaring ceilings (up to 22 feet), and walls of windows that fill the space with natural light.Outdoors, the beauty of the land takes center stage. You'll enjoy listening to beautiful nature sounds while picking figs and apples from your own trees, casting a line into one of the ponds, or sipping coffee while the sun rises over your acreage. With 2,700 square feet of covered porches and balconies, there's no shortage of places to sit, sip, and take in the views.This is more than just a home - it's a lifestyle that simply cannot be replicated within Lafayette city limits.
