8749 Island Rd, Ventress, Louisiana
Four bedrooms, a private office, and an open great room with twelve-foot ceilings. Outside, a covered porch, an outdoor kitchen, and a second gas fireplace that pulls everyone past the threshold. The work is done. Move in, host this weekend.
On the island side of False River, a four-bedroom new build was finished this year with one question driving every selection: how does the house perform on a Saturday in October. The answer reads in the floor plan. Twelve-foot ceilings carry the main living spaces. The kitchen runs to a quartz island long enough to seat six, anchored by a 36-inch gas range and a black stainless apron-front sink facing the water.
A sliding pass-through window above that sink opens directly to the outdoor kitchen, where a Coyote gas grill and a second prep sink wait under a covered porch. The porch holds a gas fireplace and a dining table for eight. The great room inside holds a matching fireplace under custom tile, with the river framed through full-height glass behind the sofa.
Off the great room, a wet bar with wine cooler and a built-in ice maker. Sonos surround sound runs through the interior and the exterior. The primary suite carries the same restraint: double vanities, a custom shower with full-height tile, a freestanding tub, and a walk-in closet that does not pretend to be modest. A separate office sits at the front of the house for the weekday version of this address.
False River has two sides. The island side is the quieter one, with deeper water and longer sightlines. This lot sits on it, with the dock straight off the back lawn.
One inside, anchoring the great room under custom tile. One outside, on the covered porch beside the dining table. Both run on gas. Both light from a switch.
Sink, Coyote gas grill, stainless finishes, under the covered porch. The sliding pass-through window from the indoor kitchen sits directly above it. The host never leaves the conversation.
A dedicated wet bar with a wine cooler and a built-in ice maker. Sized for a full weekend of company without a trip to the kitchen.
Twelve feet in the main living areas, ten feet through the rest of the home. The volume reads on the first step inside and on every photo of the river through the glass.
Built in 2026. Custom cabinetry, tile, fixtures, and finishes all original to the buyer. No renovation list, no compromises, no waiting.

False River is an oxbow lake, a former bend of the Mississippi cut off centuries ago, now twenty-two miles of clean, deep water shaped like a horseshoe through Pointe Coupee Parish.
The island side is the quieter shoreline. The water at the back of this lot reaches twenty feet at the dock. New Roads, with its restaurants and the parish seat, is six minutes by car. Baton Rouge is forty minutes east when work calls.
Saturday is for the boat. Sunday is for the porch.
