Property Description

A rare ownership opportunity awaits at 2 Longleaf Lane, an award-winning modernist residence designed in 1950 by renowned Louisiana architect William B. Wiener Sr. as his personal home. Nationally published and documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey, this 3,540 SF, entirely single-story residence is one of Shreveport’s most architecturally significant homes and a rare example of nationally recognized Mid-Century Modern design. Privately set on just under one acre in historic Pine Park, its innovative T-shaped bi-nuclear floor plan influenced by Marcel Breuer separates public entertaining spaces from the private bedroom wing. Each of the three Bedrooms has its own private en suite Bathroom, while a separate Powder Room serves guests and makes the layout ideal for entertaining. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows fill the home with exceptional natural light, while dramatic flat rooflines, Roman brick, walls of glass, exposed steel and original terrazzo floors create a seamless connection between architecture and landscape. The functional Kitchen offers lovely custom built-ins and abundant storage. Accessible from either the exterior or the current Primary Suite, the attached Atrium contains a covered in-ground pool and shower. The pool may be uncovered, restored and enjoyed, or the Atrium offers the potential for conversion into a fourth Bedroom if desired. Additional features include a Workshop and covered 2-car Carport. This extraordinary residence remains an enduring landmark of Louisiana Modernism and the Wiener family’s architectural legacy.
