Columned Grace, Countryside Calm
Set well back from the road behind an expanse of manicured lawn, this two-story colonial announces itself with quiet confidence — a columned portico, gabled roof, and brick chimney rising against the white-and-red-brick facade. A concrete drive traces the approach beneath a canopy of mature trees, the wooded perimeter framing the residence on all sides.
Inside, vaulted ceilings and hardwood floors carry through generous living spaces anchored by a wood-manteled fireplace and white brick surround. Plantation shutters and glass doors temper the light; a chandeliered dining room opens through French doors to the grounds. The kitchen pairs granite countertops and a substantial dark island with stainless appliances, including a double oven, beneath pendant lighting.
Across 3,800 square feet, three bedrooms and two-and-a-half-plus baths include a master retreat with a soaking tub, separate glass-enclosed walk-in shower, and dual-sink vanity. Beyond the walls, five acres unfold into an outdoor realm of covered pavilions, an outdoor kitchen, a pergola-shaded patio, and a screened porch with a swing bed overlooking the trees.
Five acres of open lawn and shade trees, ordered around a home built for gathering — indoors and out.

The Setting
1006 Carla Drive sits within St. Martin Parish in the heart of Louisiana's Acadiana region, where Saint Martinville's small-town character meets the open countryside. The five-acre parcel offers a rural setting with a wooded perimeter, yet remains within reach of the broader Lafayette area's shopping, dining, and services.
The grounds themselves define the address: expansive lawn, mature trees, and generous outdoor living structures create a private, self-contained retreat set back from the road along a landscaped concrete drive.
