At Water's Edge

Edged in reclaimed brick, a technique Culp discovered on one of his many trips to South Louisiana, the home's landscaping celebrates native plants that thrive in our climate - palmettos, azaleas, magnolias, Indian hawthorn, mandevilla, hibiscus and elephant ears - handpicked by landscaper Roy Bennett. In the center of the circle driveway, a sugar kettle water feature with a fleur de lis sculptural accent is nestled among blooms of drought-resistant flowers. The stucco and brick exterior of the home is brightened with wrought iron window baskets overflowing with hardy impatiens. An elegant garçonierre, opposite the garage, welcomes visitors and adds visual interest to the landscape.

Unmissed details like arched wooden garage doors are typical of Culp's style of homebuilding. It's the extra touches that add up to major “wow-factors” when Culp designs and builds a home. Bevelo exterior lighting, Old English ridge tiles and antique brick throughout add to the authenticity of the home.

Upon entering the foyer, the combined dining room and great room set the tone for a unique open feel. Atop an Aubusson needlepoint rug, the gold leafed and antique mirror topped dining table is a custom-made creation by Pettigrew in Dallas. A large paned, bay window looks out onto the front water feature as the sun casts its rays inside on the glimmering rock crystal chandelier dripping with pink, red and clear prisms from a gold ceiling medallion.

Gorgeous heart of pine wide-plank floors and enormous reclaimed cypress beams add continuity throughout the home. Culp is a master at repurposing materials, and the wood floors, beams and brick used in this home are no exception, as they were originally the bones of an industrial warehouse in Donaldsonville.


The custom, made-to-order Spanish cedar windows and doors are yet another unifying element in the Culp house. Their large panes and graceful arches make the views from inside out even more appealing. In between these doors and windows are sconces by Flambeau, one of Culp's favorite lighting artists. The welcoming double front door is antique cypress with delicate wrought iron work.
