Nestled in the heart of Zachary's Historic District, this beautifuly restored Victorian masterpiece offers an experience unlike any other. Built in 1903 by Zachary's first railroad station master and later home to the city's first mayor, the McHugh House stands today as a timeless tribute to Louisiana's rich heritage, lovingly preserved while embracing the comforts of modern living. From the moment you step onto the gracious wraparound porch, time seems to slow. Antique rocking chairs invite quiet conversation, century-old craftsmanship surrounds you, and every room reveals carefully curated furnishings that honor the elegance of another era. Inside, original Victorian antiques, museum-quality décor, soaring ceilings, handcrafted woodwork, and historic architectural details create an atmosphere of warmth, beauty, and authenticity. Yet behind the historic charm are thoughtful modern conveniences designed to make every stay effortless. From the authentic dining room to the charming vintage kitchen and elegant bedrooms, every corner reflects a passion for history and craftsmanship. Outside, guests can relax beneath mature trees in the private courtyard, sip coffee on the porch while watching downtown Zachary awaken, or stroll across the street to the historic gazebo where live music, festivals, and community events bring the town together throughout the year. The Saturday Farmers Market, local restaurants, boutiques, parks, and charming downtown attractions are al just a short walk away. The rear building is outfitted with a commercial kitchen and can be used as an event center or overflow for guests' parking and entertainment. They are TWO SEPARATE addresses but come as a package deal. A MAJOR OPPORTUNITY AWAITS YOU!!!
