The historic Laurent-Ball Cottage, circa 1890, is a masterful blend of timeless Southern architecture and refined modern living, ideally located near the Mandeville lakefront and the shops, restaurants and charm of Old Mandeville. Its extensive restoration and thoughtfully designed addition were completed in 2022, elevating the residence 11 feet and expanding it to approximately 2,569 square feet. This stunning Italianate center-hall cottage features a deep front gallery, original mahogany doors and soaring 11½-foot ceilings. A wide central foyer opens to two luxurious primary suites, an elegant dining area, an expansive living room and a beautifully appointed gourmet kitchen with Calacatta Gold marble countertops, a quartzite-topped island and paneled appliances. Additional accommodations include a guest suite and a light-filled art studio with concealed Murphy bed. French doors lead to an exceptional outdoor kitchen, dining and lounging area overlooking the lush rear lawn and garden. Rich in history, architectural character and thoughtful design, this remarkable Old Mandeville residence offers gracious indoor-outdoor living just moments from Lake Pontchartrain.
