Property Description

This stunning New Orleans–style home, built over a century ago, captures the craftsmanship and character that make this neighborhood so beloved. With its expansive 13x27 front porch, stately Doric columns, tall wood windows, and classic double swing, it’s the kind of home that turns heads. Step inside to find soaring ceilings, abundant natural light from original restored windows, and a blend of newly refinished and well-preserved hardwood floors that highlight the home’s warm, inviting character. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with new soapstone countertops, a new sink and oven, and an extended counter bar area — seamlessly blending old-world charm with modern convenience. The primary suite offers a serene retreat with private balcony access and a fully renovated bathroom featuring custom tile flooring, a dual-head tile shower, and all-new plumbing. Outside, enjoy the new landscaping and cast-iron fence, a new roof, new gutters with stainless guards, and fresh walking paths leading to a heated and cooled two-car garage. The garage has been rebuilt with an elevated slab, new insulation, electrical, and a stainless utility sink — plus a tool shop, attic storage, a 220 outlet, and an additional parking pad in the alley. Lovingly maintained and carefully improved, this home beautifully blends classic architecture with modern comfort. Every update was made with longevity and quality in mind, making this a rare opportunity to own a piece of Baton Rouge history that’s ready for years of everyday living and enjoyment.
