Property Description
This rare offering showcases a stunning, high-end lakefront residence designed by renowned architect A. Hays Town, perfectly situated along the Cane River in Natchitoches. Located on prestigious Williams Avenue, this exceptional brick home captures sweeping views of the historic downtown district. From the moment you enter through the magnificent arched front door, you're greeted by gracious proportions, exquisite custom moldings, and distinctive fireplaces--hallmarks of Mr. Town's celebrated craftsmanship. The formal living and dining rooms feature expansive custom windows that flood the interiors with natural light while framing panoramic views of the river and the generous 38' back porch. The spacious kitchen and oversized adjoining utility room offer abundant room for culinary and household tasks. Nearby, a richly paneled office with its own fireplace exudes timeless elegance. A versatile china closet--large enough to function as a home office or craft room--adds yet another thoughtful touch. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the breakfast room create a serene setting with uninterrupted water views. The primary bedroom suite on the main level enjoys a tranquil lakefront panorama, joined by an additional bedroom and full bath. Upstairs, two more bedrooms, a playroom, and a full bath provide substantial accommodations for family or guests. Outdoors, the property offers generous off-street parking and lush landscaping, including live oaks and crepe myrtles personally selected by Mr. Town. The grounds also present exciting opportunities for customization--whether converting the workshop into an outdoor kitchen or expanding the boathouse and dock. A true Natchitoches gem, this home blends architectural significance, natural beauty, and limitless potential.
