Overview

This waterfront property is a fully cleared and elevated homesite configured for residential development. It offers water frontage on Contraband Bayou and includes an on-site concrete boat launch designed to provide direct, practical access to the water. The seller notes that city utilities are available, supporting an easier path to building. An English Romantic Creole home plan is referenced as having been designed by Everett Schram, with the home plan available for purchase separately.

The site is zoned residential and is located in a flood zone AE. The property is described as having navigable waterfront conditions, and the owner reports there is no HOA fee.

For buyers looking to build a primary residence or a second home with direct water access, this parcel’s cleared status and elevation can reduce early site work compared with undeveloped ground. The combination of residential zoning, city utilities availability, and a dedicated boat launch makes it particularly useful for tenants or owners who want straightforward on-water recreation without relying on off-site facilities. The flood zone designation should be considered early in planning to ensure the final design and permitting strategy aligns with local requirements.
