Just approved by the city to be subdivided into 5 lots including the current 8670 sqft custom home that will still remain on a 3.6 acre parcel. The 4 “new” lots are all zoned A1 and range from 1/3 acre to 1.5 acres in size. You may never find a more quintessential estate in all of Baton Rouge than this Bill Powell, AIA architectural masterpiece. Tucked away on 6.5 acres and surrounded by mature trees and gentle rolling hills, one of the best aspects of this home is its connection to the landscape, envisioned by landscape architect Jon Emerson. From the residence’s orientation on the land maximizing spectacular views and privacy - to the custom millwork and stained glass front door - only the finest materials were considered. On the main floor, you’ll find a natural light-filled room with a cypress ceiling and Texas limestone fireplace, a generous formal dining room, and kitchen complete with Douglas fir cabinets and commercial-grade appliances. Follow the formal living room with fireplace and pocket doors to a large office overlooking beautiful crepe myrtles and mature live oaks. The first floor owners suite has its own private wing with wet-bar, home gym, split his and hers bathrooms, a fireplace, sitting area, and screened-in sunporch with a tranquil view of the pool and back yard. Take the stairs or the elevator to the second floor to find two bedrooms, each with their own bath and balcony, and a game room with wet bar and additional balcony. On the third floor lookout you’ll find panoramic views of the forest and Bayou Duplantier beyond, large windows and an observation balcony, making it the perfect spot for taking in the natural beauty of the property. Palatial amenities include grandeur outdoor kitchen, sparkling negative edge pool with spa and waterfall, zinc roof, 3 car garage, guest house and generator. This astounding, sprawling estate presents the grand lifestyle of luxury living in an unparalleled location. Check out the virtual tour!
