Property Description
Some properties give you a place to live. Others give you a story to carry forward.Dating to approximately the early 1800s, this French Creole home sits quietly on more than four acres at the end of Wallace Broussard Road--offering something increasingly rare: the feeling of country living right in the middle of Carencro.Step inside and you'll find the character that simply cannot be recreated today, including original wood floors and architectural details that speak to more than two centuries of history. Generations have gathered here, worked this land, and added their own chapters to a property that has watched Carencro grow up around it.Outside, the acreage feels like its own little world. Fruit trees, garden spaces, a barn and room to spread out create the opportunity for a slower, more connected way of life--all while Walmart, Super 1 and everyday conveniences are just moments away. At the end of this dead-end road, though, you would never know it.And while the history is part of the magic, modern comfort hasn't been forgotten. A new HVAC system has recently been installed, and additions over the years have expanded the original home for the way families live today.Properties with acreage are special. Historic homes are special. Finding more than four acres with a circa-1800s home tucked away in the middle of town is something else entirely.This isn't simply a house for sale. It's an opportunity to become part of a story that's been unfolding here for more than 200 years--and to write what comes next.
