Hebert Family New Residential Construction
One of our most popular projects was building a custom home for the Hebert family in Louisiana!
This new construction project for in 2011 was truly a favorite for the Carroll Family! We loved helping the Hebert family realize their dream of building a custom & spacious Acadian-style house on their premium land. The incredible front porch, accented with a traditional red door and a prominent dormer atop, this home has remarkable curb appeal. The interior is just as appealing & authentic; beautiful heart-of-pine wood flooring, tall ceilings, a phenomenal custom kitchen, hand-crafted wood cabinets...well, don't take our word for it...view the image gallery below!
