Property Description

Welcome to The Marybeth, a beautifully restored historic home in the heart of downtown St. Martinville. Originally built in the late 1800s, this remarkable estate underwent a complete transformation when the current owners purchased the property in 2013, thoughtfully enhancing and expanding it over the years while preserving its timeless character. From the charming wraparound porch and stunning stained-glass front door to the elegant copper gutters and original wavy glass floor-to-ceiling windows, the craftsmanship and architectural detail found throughout this home simply cannot be replicated. The residence offers 3,709 square feet of living space featuring four spacious bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a large executive office or second living area, a formal dining room, and a sunroom with its own private porch. An additional 757 square feet of finished attic space provides abundant storage while maintaining the home's historic charm. The outdoor living spaces are equally impressive. Enjoy a large pool complemented by a 20x30 pavilion, a New Orleans-style outdoor kitchen, workshop, pool bathroom, outdoor shower, and a charming smokehouse, creating the perfect setting for entertaining or relaxing along the Bayou Teche. Modern upgrades include a Generac whole-home generator, a whole-home water purification system, and a recently added non-slip concrete coating across the driveway, front entrance, and pool area for both beauty and functionality. Situated on one of the most picturesque streets in St. Martinville, lined with cypress trees and offering breathtaking views of Bayou Teche, the home is just steps from both a boat launch and kayak launch, providing easy access to outdoor recreation. Homes like The Marybeth are truly one of a kind, offering the charm and character of historic architecture paired with the comfort and convenience of modern amenities. The Marybeth is ready to welcome you home. Schedule your private showing today.
