Classic Cottage, Garden District Home in Baton Rouge, LA

This home has great bones and is one of the only 3 bedroom/ 2 bath (9 rooms total) houses in the Garden District neighborhood for less than $250K. Rare Blue Rose in Garden District. What makes it rare? Authentic, charming details from 1940s, or earlier (there are differing opinions if the house was built in 20's or 40's). Fireplaces with original gas mantels in "art- deco" style. Both bathrooms are newly renovated with tile floors. Interior re- painted. Gorgeous cypress all around. Wood floors throughout. Vinyl floor covering in kitchen. Sweet, sunny breakfast nook. Sitting and dining rooms. Three bedrooms, including one perfect for guests with private bath, walk in closet, and separate entrance. Great front porch for saying hello to neighbors. Private, fenced backyard for barbecues. Two gated off street parking spots and plenty of parking in front of the house. House features quality construction that would be too expensive to build today. Approximately 1720 sq. feet. 1610 sq. foot living space. Hasn't been fully maxed out on the renovation...YOU COULD MAKE SOME MONEY ON THIS HOUSE WITH A FEW MORE RENOVATIONS. Located in the heart of one of Baton Rouge's oldest neighborhoods. Short walk along quiet boulevard (Park Blvd) to LSU lakes, tennis courts, golf, dog park, on the LSU bus line. Friendly neighbors. This convenient location is close to both LSU and downtown Baton Rouge. You can get to everything Baton Rouge has to offer in just a few minutes. There are I-10 exits on Perkins and just a few blocks away off of Dalrymple Dr. Great location for families and those with pets. Easy access to LSU. I most enjoy that this home has quality construction that is built to last. Wood floors. Plenty of sun. High ceilings. This is a classy cottage that hasn't been messed around with in some quickie renovation. There is plenty of room to grow and reach it's full potential.
