This beautiful home, with 4 bedrooms, 3 baths and possible 5th bedroom in the bonus area, abounds in wonderful architectural details and antique woods. A combination of architectural antiques with state of the art systems offers a rare blend of beauty and function. Set on a large corner lot that leads into a cul-de-sac, the near 3,800 Living Area home is in Antonia Plantation subdivision in the Brusly area. Built of Old Brick and Stucco, the French design has many special features and amenities outside as well as in. A centered planter and flowerbeds awash with color highlight the front door and yard. Gaslights and brick walkways welcome friends and family to the front entry as does the kitchen portico where an antique pine post and beaded board ceiling adorn this side entry from the driveway. A professionally landscaped yard has very lush plantings, walkway lighting, French drains, brick walks and accents, and a sprinkler system. Unique �under the eave� lighting gives a gorgeous presence to the home in the evening and an expansive covered back porch and open patio make outdoor entertaining a breeze. Through the front door entry, adorned with sidelights and transom, one enters the Foyer and is immediately struck by the special charm and character of the home. Extensive use of antique pine beams, wood floors, tongue and groove ceilings, old wood doors, and used brick on walls and floors throughout the living area is reminiscent of the Raised Cottage design of old South Louisiana homes. Exquisite Moldings give the Living Room a formal flare, where a wall of windows offers lots of natural light and great views of the covered back patio and yard. Taking center stage in the living room is the massive Floor to Ceiling Brick Fireplace, which for efficiency and clean burning is really a vent less gas system. Open to the this room is the Kitchen, Keeping Room, and Dining. A wonderful gourmet Kitchen is sure to delight the cook in the family where cabinets of old pine contain pullouts, spice racks, garbage bins, vertical storage and a walk-in pantry for even more storage options. Architectural highlights of the kitchen are the Villa Alcove that houses the 5-Burner Gas Range and the furniture-style Center Island with wine storage. Granite covers the countertops and Tile Squares in varying designs accent the backsplash. The High-End Stainless Steel appliances include Wall Oven, Microwave with Convection, Refrigerator, Dishwasher and Ice Maker. A three-sided �Eat In Bar� for casual dining and serving boufet-style separates the Kitchen from Keeping Area, with the more formal Dining Area just beyond. The Kitchen, like the rest of the home, features special lighting with numerous Canister lights, Antique-finish Light Fixtures, and lighting under and over all of the cabinets. Adjacent to the kitchen is a full Office with desk areas, cabinets, built ins, filing drawers, and two separate computer stations. A home business could be run from this one room! Centered between the Dining Area and the Kitchen, the Keeping Room is a great space for family to gather at the end of the day or friends to be entertained while the cook is at work. Leaving the keeping room, a hallway leads to the Bonus Room Stairs, Guest Quarters, and Garage. The Guest Quarters encompasses a very Spacious Bedroom having its own entry from the patio and a Lovely Bath. This bath doubles as a Powder Room where an antique piece of furniture houses the sink and vanity. Use of Old Woods for the doors, ceilings, and beams was continued into these areas. Walking back through the living area, the other two bedrooms, Laundry Area and Master Suite are located on the opposite side of the home. Old Wood floors continue down the hall connecting these rooms and into the Master Bedroom. Presently the owners have the children�s bedrooms decorated each for a girl and boy and both rooms just got new carpet, have spacious closets, and share the use of a Jack and Jill bath. Between these bedrooms and the master area is a Laundry Room with sink, lots of cabinets and countertops, and space enough for a freezer. The Master Suite, located at the end of the hall, is a great blend of warm colors, old wood floors, and gleaming white woodwork. French doors lead into the Master Bath where attention to fine details was carried over from the rest of the home. �Furniture like� cabinetry was used for the double vanities of the master bath and Brushed Nickel lighting and plumbing fixtures accent the room. There�s a lovely Jetted Tub area or Oversized �job built� Shower for bath options and a very spacious closet. Again, function and design blend even in the master bath, where a large television is concealed behind one of the vanity mirrors, apparent as being there only when turned on. Upstairs, off the keeping area, the huge Bonus Room could be a media room, game room, or 5th bedroom / den area perfect for teenage children. Beyond the bonus is another room, presently used as a Hobby Room, that has a sink and could easily be converted into a 4th bathroom. Unlike many upstairs areas, there is a lot of light brought in from dormers and end windows, offering a nice birds-eye view of the pretty neighborhood. Just off the Living Room is an expansive covered patio / porch area and no expense was spared here either � Antique Beams were used for braces and columns along with more old wood tongue and groove ceilings. The four-car garage is accessed off the kitchen area and is a tremendous open area with options for cars, storage, boats, and equipment. Two double overhead doors face the side street of the corner lot and another double overhead opens to the backyard. The entire home is connected to the Central Vacuum system with �Auto Dustpan� in all the rooms with wood, brick or tile floors. The latest in technology, a Computerized Monitoring System allows for the control of the systems and functions of the home right at your fingertips. Lights can be programmed to come on and off at set intervals or as people enter and exit rooms. Speakers and sound systems, fire / smoke detectors, alarm monitors, the sprinkler system and other functions can be controlled from this central computer. This is truly a �Must See to Believe� home!
