About This Home
Fresh upgrades. Gorgeous curb appeal. Gated community living. Welcome to The Lakes! This beautifully refreshed 4-bedroom, 2-bath home sitting off Highway 311 offers the kind of warmth, space, and charm buyers instantly fall in love with. Freshly painted stucco and doors, mature landscaping, blooming crepe myrtles, and a welcoming grand foyer set the tone before you even step inside. Natural light pours into the semi-open floor plan featuring a formal dining room, breakfast nook, breakfast bar seating, decorative columns, crown molding, transom windows, ceramic tile flooring, and a spacious living room centered around a gas fireplace with mantle. The kitchen checks every box with granite countertops, stainless appliances, pantry storage, abundant cabinetry, and a gas stove with built-in air fryer capability. The spacious primary suite feels like its own private retreat with custom closet shelving, real wood floors, dual sinks, updated fixtures, jetted soaking tub, and incredible storage options throughout. Step outside to enjoy the screened patio, open entertaining area, and fully fenced backyard perfect for gatherings, pets, or peaceful evenings at home. Additional highlights include a 2022 roof, newly replaced ductwork in 2025, termite contract, efficient utility costs, and Flood Zone X where flood insurance is not required. The Lakes community offers residents a pool, tennis courts, Club House, gated access, and one of the most desirable locations in Houma.
