When it comes to holiday magic, nothing compares to walking into a home that feels like Christmas has come to life. Imagine themed rooms, twinkling lights, and holiday decorations in every corner—this is truly the Ultimate Christmas Decorated House.
Christmas at the Paras
I’ve been friends with the Para family since high school. In fact, Michael is the one that developed my love for Star Wars. They throw a magnificent Christmas party and we were lucky enough to attend this year. It is the most interior decorated Christmas house we have ever seen. It did not disappoint.
The Para house is one of my favorite Christmas places to visit. When I say that they decorate, I do not just mean a tree and lights. I mean trees and statues and nativities and paintings and Santas and bathtubs and closests, and…well you get the picture.
Most rooms have a general theme, though it is very fluid, so one could find a hidden Christmas treasure in any room.
Step Into the Ultimate Christmas Decorated House
As a family that loves all things nerdy and festive, we were blown away by the creativity and charm of this spectacular holiday home. From nativities and Santas to whimsical Christmas villages, every room is a new adventure waiting to be explored.
Let me take you on a tour of this incredible house, where Christmas spirit shines in every detail. Whether you’re looking for inspiration for your own holiday decor or simply want to marvel at the magic, this post is for you.
Why This is the Ultimate Christmas Decorated House
What makes this house stand out from the rest? It’s not just the decorations—it’s the sheer dedication and creativity that transform it into a holiday wonderland. Here’s what sets it apart:
- Themed Rooms: Each room has its own unique Christmas theme, from traditional nativities to whimsical carolers.
- Attention to Detail: No space is left untouched—ceiling decorations, chandeliers, closets, and even bathtubs are part of the festive fun.
- Hidden Treasures: Every corner holds a surprise, whether it’s a vintage Santa figurine or a handmade ornament.
This house isn’t just decorated—it’s a fully immersive holiday experience.
The Nativities
The front room is full of nativities. It is amazing how many beautiful nativities exist. I love looking at all of the differences between the sets, from the style to the color to the material used. There are also some gorgeous china cabinets filled with figurines of every Christmas character and scene imaginable. Not to mention, a few trees. One of my favorite touches are the angels that hang from the ceiling above the big tree.

The Living Room: A Santa Wonderland
The living room is mostly Santa. In fact, one of my friend’s son decided to count the Santas. He stopped after 151. By our estimates he may havecounted half of them. This room is perfect for kids and adults alike, capturing the joy and nostalgia of Santa Claus.

The Christmas Scenes
One of the spare bedrooms has a bevy of carol singers, amusement rides, and other fun loving Christmas activities. I think of this as the Christmas outdoor room.
This whimsical space is a favorite for families, offering inspiration for creating your own Christmas village at home.

Mr. Bingle: A New Orleans Icon
Probably everyone’s favorite room is the Mr. Bingle room. For those of you that are not Naturally N’Awlins,  Mr. Bingle is a snowman that assists Santa. (In fact, this house was featured on a Naturally N’Awlins segment with Frank Davis.) The now defunct department store Maison Blanche rolled out Mr. Bingle in 1948, and he has been a popular New Orleans icon ever since.

In fact, there are two Mr. Bingles that I would love to find a date of origin.
The Master Bedroom
The master bedroom was decorated so elegantly and held a tree, amazing smelling Christmas tree. It felt like something out of a movie. Even the chandeliers were decorated.

Every Room!
Don’t forgot about the kitchen, bathrooms, or garage even have interior Christmas decorations. They also took part in the festivities.
