Description
A rare opportunity to own a culturally significant Creole residence along scenic Bayou Teche. Loisel House, originally built in 1830 by Nicholas Loisel and expanded in 1869 by Dr. Harvey Bussey, has gracefully withstood nearly two centuries of history. Set on just over 8 acres framed by sugarcane fields and centuries-old Live Oaks, this estate offers peaceful southern living.
The main home underwent a thoughtful restoration in 2019 and features 5 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms. The property also includes a recently renovated barn, now operating as a charming guesthouse/Airbnb and two detached outbuildings currently used for storage.
