Farmhouse lets you gaze at Mississippi River — from your own lazy river. Check it out
There’s nothing like taking in supreme views from the comfort of your own backyard, and this “modern farmhouse” on the real estate market in Nine Mile Point, Louisiana, for $1.05 million allows you to do just that, the listing on Realtor.com says.
And it’s even better when that backyard comes with an eyeful of the Mississippi River along with its own lazy river.
The five-bedroom, 6.5-plus-bathroom estate not only has an elegant exterior, but the interior also offers sophistication and style with high ceilings, hardwood floors and beams throughout.
Other features of the 6,700-square-foot residence include:
Half basketball court
Outdoor kitchen
Salt water pool
Guest suite
Chef’s kitchen
Open floor plan
The listing also appeared on NOLA.com.
Homes with lazy rivers aren’t a common sight to see on the real estate market, and usually when they pop up, the cost of the home is in the seven-figure department. In 2020, a custom-built mansion in Amarillo, Texas, with its own grand pool and lazy river listed for $2.7 million. However, some can scale back on cost, like this wild house in Arizona that listed for $880,000 and came with both an island putting green and a lazy river.
Nine Mile Point is about 15 miles west of downtown New Orleans.
