Carroll Construction had the privilege of building in the spring of 2020.
This French Creole style home features clean lines and bold accents, high ceilings, striking and prominent beams, and large front porch with beaded board ceilings was a delight to build. The living room, kitchen, and foyer have an open floor plan great for entertaining.
Be sure to check out the photos of the outdoor kitchen in the photo gallery. Our clients are LSU fans and they have the space to enjoy the games no matter what the weather does! We look forward to many celebrations in this space.
