What's special

Waterfront home located in Barbe Court on Contraband Bayou offering refined coastal living with gunite pool, over 90 feet of water frontage, a private dock, and boat house/lift. Custom designed and built in 2015 by PAR Group, this impeccably maintained elevated two-story residence was thoughtfully designed for both elegance and durability. This like-new home sits on navigable water and offers 4185 living sq ft with 2 car carport, workshop, and outdoor storage building. The open-concept living area is the heart of the home, showcasing pine wood flooring, a gas fireplace and seamless flow to the porch, dining area, eat-in kitchen, and expansive gourmet kitchen. The oversized kitchen features natural quartzite countertops, custom maple cabinetry, a butler’s pantry, commercial-grade five-burner gas range with pot filler, electric oven, wine fridge, refrigerator, and dishwasher.

The spa-inspired bath includes a double vanity, separate water closet, soaking claw foot tub, and separate walk-in shower, along with a spacious walk-in closet featuring custom built-ins. Upstairs, a second living room provides an additional gathering space and is perfectly situated next to two bedrooms connected by a Jack and Jill bath, offering comfort and privacy for family or guests.
