The aerial views on this page reflect much of what is known as the Barbe Lakefront Partition and over 4 acres of history, beauty and Lake front access.

Lots 3B, 4, and 5

Historic Shell Beach Drive is well known throughout  Lake Charles and Southwest Louisiana! The beautiful and prestigous drive along the Lake is generally included on noteworthy itineraries, including that of the Convention and Visitor's Bureau.

The availability of vacant land and homes along Shell Beach Drive is a rarity. In fact, even real estate "just off the Lake" is in high demand.

Historic homes as well as those built more recently can be found on this popular stretch. For many, locations west of Lake Street hold special appeal. Now, an incredible opportunity to purchase this historic property, inclusive of 219' of riparian rights, has been made available.

With few exceptions, a study of comparable sales indicates that the majority of lots sold along Shell Beach Drive are typically in the 200' depth range. Lots 3B, 4 and 5, however, boasts depths greater than 500 feet.

That is, because the heirs do not desire to develop this valuable property themselves, they have united in offering to the open market.

Family members have agreed to combine Lots 3B, 4, and 5 in anticipation of use as an estate in keeping with the surroundings. The more attractive pricing of the combined lots reflects this preference and their hope to to see this property become another multi-generational owned piece of valuable real estate. However,  Lot 4 is available as a separate offering.

 

 

The approximate dimensions and details of this once-in-a-lifetime  4 plus acre offering are as follows:

  • 359' on Shell Beach Drive
  • 219' Riparian Rights on North side of Shell Beach Drive
  • A typical depth on the South Side of Shell Beach Drive of over 515'!
