Homeplace Plantation House, French colonial plantation in Hahnville, United States

Homeplace Plantation House is a two-story French colonial raised cottage with a hip roof and a two-story gallery porch encircling it. The first floor and the gallery pillars are stuccoed brick, the pillars cast in wedge-shaped molds; the upper gallery, second-floor walls, floors and ceilings are cypress, with clay and Spanish moss chinking between the timbers.

Construction occurred between 1787 and 1791, creating one of the finest examples of French colonial raised cottage architecture in North America. The building style emerged from adapting French construction methods to the region's swampy conditions.

The house is also called Keller Homestead, after Pierre Anatole Keller, who bought it in 1889; the Keller family's long ownership gave the property its second name. Inside, two basement storage rooms keep original wine racks, and the dining room floor is marble. The house was the main filming location for the 1991 movie "Convicts", starring Robert Duvall and James Earl Jones.

Homeplace Plantation House stands on the south side of the Mississippi River on Louisiana Highway 18, about 0.5 miles (0.8 km) south of the Hahnville post office, at the southwest corner of LA 18 and Home Place. It is private property and not open to the public, so the house can only be seen from the road.

The house was the main filming location for the 1991 film "Convicts", starring Robert Duvall, Lukas Haas and James Earl Jones. The upper gallery, second-floor walls, floors and ceilings are all cypress, and the gallery pillars were cast in wedge-shaped brick molds.
