Loosemoore Estate is not a house. It is a legacy. Set on 15.43 gated acres in Gonzales, Louisiana, this meticulously curated luxury estate — one parcel, two lots, two addresses — blends bespoke residential living with a private professional facility, each with independent utilities, sewer systems and generators.
Decades of craft, vision, and an absolute refusal to compromise are visible in every detail — every threshold, every stone surface, every hand-hewn beam.
A grand drive lined with 13 mature live oaks leads to the 4,440 SF custom Acadian manor: 5 bedrooms, a separate office, rich pecky cypress cabinetry, custom hardwood floors, four independent climate zones, a wood-burning fireplace with gas insert, and seven restored original cypress exterior doors. A 943 SF entertainment suite adds a full custom bar, 75" theater, 72" electric fireplace, automatic bidet suite, and dedicated HVAC. The attached three-car garage includes a full secondary kitchen in cypress cabinetry.
A New Orleans-inspired courtyard of reclaimed St. Louis brick, framed by mature palms, copper mermaid fountains, and lush flourishing greenery. A 770+ SF cabana — built from 400-year-old hand-hewn church beams — offers a full outdoor kitchen and half bath, overlooking the resort grounds. Six authentic gas lanterns and expansive landscape lighting bring the estate to life at dusk.
A 40-foot oval pool, ten feet deep at its deepest end with shallow entry stairs, and an attached jetted brick spa — each on independent heating zones and controls, fed by triple cascading waterfalls. At twilight, the lit grounds become the estate's most spectacular sight.
A one-acre, Louisiana-shaped pond — stocked and fed by its own dedicated pump well — crowned by two commercial illuminated fountains rising eleven feet, and crossed by a custom-built gazebo extending over the water with overhead fans, electric lighting, and running water. Mature pond cypress frame the water's edge.
A separately addressed building of significant independent value: 4,100 SF with 25-foot ceilings, a two-post commercial vehicle lift, 220V/110V/50-amp service, full RV hookup, and 1,200 SF of finished office and lounge space with kitchenette and half bath. Independent sewer, dedicated generator, concrete patios, and extensive parking. Its own address. Its own value.
Thirteen live oaks line the grand driveway, with a magnificent oak at the pond's edge. Mature pond cypress rise 50 to 60 feet around the water, their knobby knees a signature of the Louisiana landscape. Magnolias, crepe myrtles, and other mature trees grace the grounds throughout. Approximately 8 cleared, groomed rear acres are eligible for family partition — the rare opportunity to build for the next generation while sharing the estate's amenities.

This custom-built Acadian manor was designed and constructed with no compromise in craft. Seven restored original exterior cypress doors welcome you at every threshold. Six authentic gas lanterns adorn the exterior — two flanking the grand front entrance, four lining the upper covered balcony — casting the warm, timeless glow that is the signature of great Louisiana architecture.
At the manor entrance, a pelican fountain sculpture sits in a rare antique Louisiana sugar kettle. Beyond the reclaimed St. Louis brick courtyard lies a New Orleans-inspired oasis: mature palms, copper mermaid fountains, a 40-foot pool with triple cascading waterfalls, and a 770+ SF cabana built from 400-year-old church beams. A one-acre, Louisiana-shaped pond — crossed by a custom-built over-water gazebo — completes the grounds.
The second address is no afterthought. With its own assigned address and its own lot, 40326 Loosemoore Road is a 4,100 SF professional-grade facility: 25-foot ceilings, a two-post vehicle lift, 220V/110V/50-amp service, 1,200 SF of finished interior, full RV hookup, independent sewer, concrete patios, and extensive parking. A standalone asset of significant independent value, included in this sale.
Two commercial Generac generators serve the estate — one for the residence, one for the professional building. The grounds are gated and secured. Approximately 8 rear acres are cleared, groomed, and eligible for family partition. Three minutes to Interstate 10. Thirty minutes to Baton Rouge. Forty-five minutes to New Orleans. Two minutes to a private airport. Adjacent to Pelican Point Golf Course.

Location
40326 is a separately addressed, 4,100 SF private professional building on its own lot — built for serious work and serious storage. It offers 25-foot ceilings, a two-post vehicle lift, 220V/110V/50-amp service, a full RV hookup (tall and deep enough for a 44-foot Class A motorcoach, indoors), and 1,200 SF of finished, climate-controlled office and lounge space with a kitchenette and half bath — plus its own sewer system and dedicated generator. It lends itself to a workshop, studio, design or contracting office, or a collector's garage — all steps from the main home.
Yes — resoundingly, on every count:
Substantial on both counts. Loosemoore already comprises two separate lots with two addresses — a foundation few estates of this caliber offer — across 15.43 contiguous acres. It is offered at a per-acre basis in line with the unimproved estate lots trading along Loosemoore Road today, yet that basis already encompasses a fully realized estate: a custom 4,440 SF Acadian manor, a separate 4,100 SF professional building, resort pool and spa, and a one-acre stocked pond. In effect, the land alone substantiates much of the value, with the residence and grounds conveying atop it. Neighboring acreage along the same road has already been subdivided and developed into homesites, and new estate lots are selling nearby — underscoring both the corridor's trajectory and the development potential of land at this scale. For the discerning buyer or investor with the vision and means to realize it, opportunities of this caliber seldom reach the market.
Yes — Loosemoore is built to hold your passions. Between the 4,100 SF professional building (25-ft ceilings, two-post car lift, 220V/110V/50-amp service, full RV hookup), the attached three-car garage, and 15.43 acres, there's room for:
Yes — and unusually so for a rural estate. The 4,100 SF professional building (40326), on its own address, is purpose-built for it: 25-ft ceilings, a vehicle lift, 220V/110V/50-amp service, full RV hookup, 1,200 SF of finished climate-controlled office & lounge, and extensive parking. It lends itself to a wide range of live-work pursuits:
The estate sits in Gonzales, Ascension Parish — privately set on 15+ acres, yet minutes from I-10 and squarely between Louisiana's two largest cities:
Best of all, some of the South's most charming escapes sit barely five minutes from your gate: tour the gardens and antebellum grandeur of Houmas House Estate & Gardens, then slip into The Cajun Village in Sorrento for beignets and café au lait at The Coffee House, a wander through its Cajun gift and folk-art studios, and the resident alligators in the village pond. A rare combination — true rural privacy and acreage, with none of the isolation.
