About 1862 Bushville Highway
Step into a storybook at this Creole Colonial estate where heritage and southern hospitality meet on gorgeous bayou front acreage. We proudly present the one and only, Maison Stephanie. Built in 1796, this one of a kind estate captures history in its beautiful restorations offering modern comfort. This historic treasure is currently a thriving bed & breakfast but equally suited as a private residential retreat. The main house has 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, expansive dining areas, a welcoming kitchen and cozy fireplaces, to name a few. Two additional residential buildings provide flexibility and charm. The Sally House is a 1 bedroom Acadian style house with spacious living, kitchenette, and clawfoot tub. The Carriage House has 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, plus multiple living and dining areas. Other buildings include a commercial kitchen, utility cottage, pigeon tower and greenhouse. The grounds are a storybook escape: vibrant flower beds, herb and vegetable gardens, towering shade trees and shrubbery, and an ethereal pond stocked with fish--a peaceful backdrop for gatherings, weddings, or quiet reflection. With horse-ready pastures and acreage ready for development, the property is ideal for equestrian use, tourism ventures or recreational land. Maison Stephanie is more than just a home -- it is a living piece of Louisiana's history. Once you arrive, you'll feel its magic: the urge to linger on the wide porches, to watch the sunset reflect over the water, to imagine yourself hosting a bed & breakfast or simply savoring it as a private home. This estate offers not only a property but a lifestyle -- one filled with heritage, hospitality, and the promise of peaceful living. This is truly a property that must be experienced in person. Don't hesitate for a chance to visit whether it's for a B&B stay or to tour and consider being the new owner.
