Property Description

Fall in love with this Old Goodwood gem. Nestled in a quiet, established neighborhood, this thoughtfully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home perfectly blends classic character with modern, designer finishes, all done with quality craftsmanship. Wide plank hardwood flooring invite you into the foyer and lead into a spacious formal dining area and separate office. The heart of the home is the massive den separated from the dining area by a solid cypress beam and anchored by a cozy brick, wood-burning fireplace, with a view of the rear yard. It opens to a renovated kitchen boasting rich butcher block countertops, custom open shelving, a timeless beadboard backsplash and stainless-steel appliances. The kitchen, butler pantry/laundry room and bathrooms look straight out of a magazine ad! The interior flow is exceptional, but the outdoor living spaces are what truly set this home apart. The massive rear carport pulls double duty as the ultimate open-air entertainment pavilion, featuring Coolcrete coating below and a stunning cathedral ceiling above, crafted from the stage flooring in the historic 1932 LSU Theatre and reclaimed during a 2009 renovation. Beyond the back porch and patio lies a large, fully fenced backyard with prize winning camellias and green space. Storage is never an issue thanks to an air conditioned workshop and adjacent 12x12 storage room as well as a fully decked attic. Parking is plentiful with a wide, gated driveway and additional parking pads in the front and rear of the home. Enjoy the absolute best of Baton Rouge living with a walkable location just minutes from popular Mid-City shops, local dining, Government Street events, Towne Center and easy interstate access. Refrigerator, washer, and dryer all remain for the buyer. New roof, new hot water heater and 4 year old HVAC.
