The Owls of Crowned Oak Estate

The Crowned Oak Estate is a home nestled in the village of French Settlement, Louisiana. I happened to stumble upon it, by chance, shortly after my first husband died. I had known that I was ready to move forward in my life, my mom and I had been out all day looking at various homes and pieces of land on the market. Deep down, I was fighting the choice between buying an apartment in Nashville to live my biggest dreams, or finding a place my children deserved to call home. On one hand, I craved the rush and thrill of existing within a city, on the other I could envision chickens, flowers, orchards, tire swings, and the certain sense of accomplishment that comes from living a country life.
