When you aren't walking the sandy shoreline of Bienville Beach, simply sit and soak up the radiant weather from the balcony.
Inside, the sun continues to flood in naturally. The living room's soft sofa and smart TV lend themselves to pleasant streaming sessions, whereas the updated kitchen makes cooking a breeze with its stainless steel appliances and ample meal prep space.
