Overview

Step back into the dawn of Louisiana's history with this extraordinary, raised Creole Cottage, a premier landmark of Pointe Coupee Parish. Situated on three lush acres and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, North Bend offers a rare opportunity to own a home defined by its refined rustic character and deep connection to the 19th-century landscape. Far from the rigid formality of later periods, this home celebrates the refined rustic nature of early colonial craftsmanship. It is a residence where the builder's hand is still visible in every corner, featuring a wealth of original 1800s components. The home's character is defined by its second-level living area, where stunning original Cypress floors underfoot and authentic bousillage walls create a warm, organic atmosphere that modern construction cannot replicate. The primary first floor features original solid brick walls and flooring, offering a textured, earthy elegance that grounds the home in its 1803 origins. While the home boasts ten original rooms, each with its own fireplace, the scale remains intimate and inviting, reflecting the sensible, functional beauty of early Louisiana life rather than mid-century opulence. From the traditional brick-between-post construction in 1835 to the elevated galleries designed to catch morning breezes, the home remains a living museum of early structural artistry. The grounds are guarded by "May," a magnificent Live Oak estimated at 450 to 500 years old and listed on the Live Oak Society Registry. Enhancing the estate's natural beauty is a striking stand of eleven Cypress trees, providing a quintessential Louisiana silhouette against the sky. Seven additional Live Oaks and a centuries-old Magnolia provide deep, cooling shade, while banana trees, sago palms, and vibrant lilies add a lush, tropical texture. A comprehensive 1992 restoration ensured the home's structural stability while carefully preserving its historic patina.
