Could you relax here? When you cross the cattle guard to head down the gravel road, it seems as if you just drove into South Louisiana. Trees dripping with Spanish moss line the drive, creating beautiful shadow patterns on the road. You know right away that you’ve left the hustle and bustle of the city. Straight ahead you see the charming lakefront home. During the spring you’ll especially love the fragrant star jasmine that climbs the trellis, framing the inviting front porch. Inside you’ll find a large living room with a tray ceiling, and plenty of room for large, comfy furniture. This home is perfect for family living, with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. You’ll have a view of beautiful Lake Bistineau from every room. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a tile backsplash. You’ll enjoy snack time at the counter-height bar The Master Bedroom is large, with a bay window overlooking the lake. You’ll love falling asleep with a view of the moon reflected on the water and waking up to the sun glittering on the lake like millions of diamonds. After a long day, you can light some candles, put on some soft music, and sink into the deep whirlpool tub to soak your stress away, or you can opt for a refreshing shower. The Master Bathroom features two separate vanities with plenty of storage, and a walk-in closet. Step through the French doors onto the large back deck overlooks the lake and is the perfect place to entertain. With plenty of seating for your guests, it will quickly become a favorite hang-out for your friends and family. You’ll enjoy watching the lake from the porch swing, where you’ll hear the choir of frogs greet the evening with their song. You may find yourself spending hours on the back deck, watching the bluebirds, hummingbirds or cardinals flitter by; rabbits, squirrels and an occasional deer or two play in the yard, and fireflies light the evening sky. Cormorants fly in formation over the lake, while a heron tiptoes along the edge of the bank, sneaking up on a tasty morsel. You may even see a mama turtle climbing the hill to lay her eggs in the spring. A favorite spot on the property is the 20’x50’ shop with a 20’x20’ covered carport, two large roll-up doors, custom built-in workbenches, and, of course, the most popular spot for the men … The Man Cave! This area is constructed of recycled materials salvaged locally, and it is full of rustic character. This heated/cooled area is equipped with a tv, bar, refrigerator and microwave. A futon makes it a favorite spot for extra guests to stay, and the bathroom with a shower makes this the perfect spot for the guys to hang out. The closet is equipped with a gun safe that will hold 14 rifles, and plenty of storage for fishing equipment. The pier leading to the boathouse is a perfect place to fish for bream. The two-stall boathouse has a motorized boat lift and room to sit and watch the turtles line up on a log, then peel off with the precision of synchronized swimmers when a passing boater comes by. This beautiful home offers true Sportsman’s Paradise living. You can fish for bass, catfish or crappie whenever you get the urge to spend a peaceful day on one of the most beautiful lakes in Louisiana, or take a lazy boat ride and enjoy a book while you relax on the water.
