Discover the ultimate in waterfront living with this timeless 3-bedroom, 2-bath log home in the desirable River Pines Plantation community. Perfectly positioned on a generous lot — plus an additional half-lot next door for even more space, privacy, or future opportunities — this property blends rustic charm with thoughtful functionality. Inside, you’ll love the open-concept layout with soaring wood ceilings, a striking stone fireplace, and a large chef’s kitchen that opens to a spacious dining area—ideal for entertaining family and friends. The first-floor primary suite offers convenience and comfort, while multiple living spaces allow for both relaxation and gatherings. Step outside to experience the true heart of the home: a wraparound deck that surrounds the house, perfect for morning coffee, sunset views, or weekend crawfish boils. The mature landscaping adds beauty and privacy, creating your own private oasis in the trees. Direct river access means you're only one minute from the Tickfaw River—just lower your boat from the hydraulic lift and set off on your next adventure. The private boathouse and boat slip make exploring Lake Maurepas and Lake Pontchartrain effortless. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the endless options for fishing, hunting, water skiing, and crabbing right from your backyard. And when the day is done, take advantage of the covered carport and attached tool room for storing gear and staying organized. All of this in a peaceful, waterfront community that’s still just a short drive from New Orleans, Baton Rouge, and Hammond—offering the perfect balance of adventure and accessibility. Come see why this River Pines Plantation retreat is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle.
