524 N River Rd, Denham Springs, LA 70726

So much more than a house, this is a Homeplace. Architect Russell Washer and builder Jack Hartman created this home, faithful to the design of a gracious 19th century Southern farmhouse. Every detail of elevation, design and construction evoke timelessness and permanence. Nestled amidst mature hardwood trees and situated for privacy on the 2+ acres in town property, the home and setting are breathtaking in their serenity and peace. Every detail of the home is created with quality custom materials and craftsmanship. As you turn off Historic River Road and wind through the front acre of the property, you are greeted by large wrap around screened porches that invite you into the gracious world of yesteryear. This charming 3 bedroom, 3 ensuite bath home boasts almost 3,000 square feet of living area, plus 900 square feet of storage and 500 square feet of porches. With solid oak floors throughout, 2 wood burning fireplaces, the home has high ceilings, crown molding, custom millwork, formal living room, formal dining room, study and laundry with butler's pantry. Kitchen, baths and butler's pantry feature ceramic tile and stone. Through tall custom windows, the large family room, breakfast room and kitchen overlook the beautiful brick patio, back garden and woodlands beyond. This back garden is formal in design, structured by low boxwood hedges and picket fencing and awaits planting of that Southern herb garden or English flower garden. The one owner home was beautifully renovated by Jack Hartman in 2018, with every attention to quality and reflects the casual elegance so desirable today.
