Property details
About 1450 Pine Tree Rd
Offered for the first time since its completion in 1970, this authentic mid-century modern masterpiece presents a rare opportunity to own a true architectural gem. Tucked away on 5.4 secluded acres behind Indian Hills Golf Course in Opelousas, this home was thoughtfully designed and constructed with a level of quality and craftsmanship rarely seen today. Built by Laddie James, a respected commercial contractor and owner of Prairie Construction Company, the home reflects the attention to detail expected from someone who played a key role in shaping the region's infrastructure—including work on I-49. From the moment you enter, you're greeted by striking redwood beams, tongue-and-groove woodwork, and expansive picture windows that flood each room with natural light and offer sweeping views of the lush, private landscape. The home's 4,328 square feet of living space includes five spacious bedrooms and four full bathrooms, blending vintage character with timeless design. An indoor pool, fully enclosed under the main roofline, provides year-round enjoyment and adds to the home's distinctive appeal. Surrounded by mature landscaping and rare plantings, the property offers exceptional privacy and tranquility from every angle. The flat roof was replaced within the past ten years, adding peace of mind to its enduring structure. Families will appreciate the convenient proximity to The Academy of the Sacred Heart, Berchman's Academy, and Opelousas Catholic School just a short drive away. This is more than a home—it's a private compound, a work of art, and a legacy property ready for its next chapter. Schedule your private tour today.
