Property Description

The Caillouet House Originally built in 1917 by Judge Adrian Joseph Caillouet and later occupied by his family after his appointment to the Federal Bench by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, this home is a piece of Houma’s rich history. Constructed by renowned contractor Jos. Robichaux of Thibodaux—also responsible for St. Joseph Cathedral—this residence was thoughtfully designed and impeccably built. The property was purchased from Mr. Lowenstein of New Orleans, whose daughter once operated a schoolhouse on the site. Today, that very schoolhouse stands as a charming detached one-bedroom, one-bath guest apartment. In 1957, the home underwent tasteful expansions including a back sitting room, an additional bedroom, a bathroom, and a space now serving as the laundry room. Now fully restored, this 5-bedroom, 3-bath residence showcases a perfect blend of historic charm and modern elegance. Original long-leaf pine floors, three converted coal-to-gas fireplaces, handmade crown molding, and refurbished antique stoves highlight its craftsmanship. Additional features include Lexan hurricane-impact windows, wrought-iron fencing, an electric gate, and more. Ideally located in downtown Houma, you're just a short walk from Ember Kitchen, Christiano Ristorante, Spigot’s Brew Pub, and other local favorites. Coffee shops, ice cream, shopping, downtown festivals, and nightlife are all just around the corner. Positioned one block off the parade route, this home offers a prime spot for entertaining during Mardi Gras and other holiday festivities. Its close proximity to St. Francis de Sales Cathedral makes walking to church or school a breeze. For healthcare professionals, Terrebonne General Health System is only 0.6 miles—or a quick 3-minute drive—making this location both practical and prestigious.
