Property Overview

Waterfront property on Cane River rarely reaches the open market. Located at 244 Cedar Bend Road in Natchez, Louisiana, this 2 bedroom, 2 bath home offers 1,661 square feet of heated living area on a 0.53± acre waterfront lot with its own boat house — step out the back door, down to the water, and you are on the river.

Built in 1990 and set in the Cedar Bend area of Natchitoches Parish, the home was designed around the view. The waterfront setting delivers what buyers come to Cane River for: quiet mornings by the water, covered storage for the boat, and open water frontage that is genuinely limited in supply along this stretch of the river.

Cane River is a 35-mile stretch of water running through the heart of the Cane River National Heritage Area, known for bass, crappie and bream fishing, boating, kayaking and waterskiing. Historic downtown Natchitoches, with its brick-paved riverbank, restaurants and shops, is a short drive north. Melrose Plantation, Oakland Plantation and the Cane River Creole National Historical Park are all close by. Alexandria and Interstate 49 are within easy reach for commuting or a weekend run to camp.

Whether you are looking for a full-time waterfront residence, a weekend place on the river, or a fishing and family retreat within driving distance of home, this is a rare opportunity to own on Cane River.
