Property Description
Camellia Hill: Step back in time to this beautiful 2224 SF (circa 1832) Acadian cottage and guest house measuring 1152 SF. Located in the historic town of Washington within walking distance to Bayou Courtableau, Ethel Park, The Antique School Mall, Hotel Klaus, the Steamboat Warehouse Restaurant, and Wolff Hall. This two story home is on 1.45 acre with beautiful oaks, pecan trees, a cedar tree, camellias, azaleas, and many beautiful plantings, too many to mention. There is a pathway to a secret bamboo garden . There is an arbor entrance and many places to sit and enjoy the scenery: including the front porch and a back screened porch on the house. This property has a large parking pad and comes with a one bedroom, one bath fully furnished guest house with a carport, also with front and back porches. This could be a separate home or rental. The main home is magnificent with an updated marble counter kitchen and stainless appliances. The house has been rewired and the CHA unit is 6-7 years old. The roof is a lifetime metal roof. The entire home is beautifully decorated for the period in which it was constructed, yet has modern conveniences. It has the original doors, ceilings, floors, and most all features are original to the home. House has a primary bedroom downstairs and two upstairs. This home has plenty of storage with a big closet upstairs. This antebellum home has a large entrance foyer, parlor with fireplace, an office, and a formal dining room. There is plenty of space on the back screened porch to sit, enjoy and entertain. This home has been lovingly restored by its owners, and so has the guest house and yard. The home was first built by a steamboat captain in the steamboat days when cotton and other items were shipped down the bayou to Washington from New Orleans. It is on the Washington walking tour and in the historic district. This home is a great value. No flooding here! High elevation! Only a minute form I-49 to Lafayette! Make an appointment today!
