10 to downtown; and 15 to LSU, it is convenient to everything yet you will feel worlds away in this quiet setting.  Much of Roseland Trace’s popularity is not only the lovely homes, but also the fact it is a small development of only 77 home-sites, has only one entry for minimal traffic, and is a neighborhood where folks actually know each other by name!  A gorgeous Antique Brick adorns the outside of the home and along with the nice landscaping, the curb appeal will have you saying, "Stop the Car Honey!"  An Expansive Front Porch adds character to the façade, but as well is very functional with the largest of rocking chairs fitting nicely.  Occupied by the Original Owners and built in 2000, the homeowners have taken great care and the house just got a New Roof in 2008.  From the moment one enters the Foyer and continues to walk through the home, “Spacious” constantly comes to mind - there is over 2,400 in Living Area!  Even the Bedroom Sizes are hefty by today’s standards, and hard to find in homes built in recent years.  Just off the foyer is a Lovely Formal Dining Room that stands apart from the rest of the living area by use of Moldings and Details.  High Ceilings were used throughout the home and Crown Moldings accent the living area.  The Family / Living Room measures 24 x 17 and features an entire “Wall of Windows” overlooking the Back Porch, Patio, and Yard.  The Open Plan lends itself to a variety of furniture layouts.  Adjacent to the living room is a “transitional area” leading to the kitchen that would function well as a Breakfast Nook or Keeping Area; and is presently used by the owners as a Desk / Computer Station.  Meal preparation is no chore in this serviceable Galley-Style Kitchen, made cheerful and bright with Natural Light from a full-length window plus sink window.  Honey Oak cabinets line both walls for storing everything “kitchen”.  There is a Gas Range-Oven / Vented Hood area, open Countertops, Appliance Garage, Dishwasher, Microwave, and Refrigerator that remains.  At one end of the kitchen a large corner Walk-In Pantry is strategically located between the garage and kitchen for easy unpacking of groceries.  A hallway off the kitchen leads to a Full Bath and large Bedroom; perfect as a Guest Quarters, but currently used as a Sewing and Hobby Room.  This hallway also gives access to the Back Covered / Screened Patio and a Breezeway to the Garage.  In keeping with the Triple-Split Bedroom plan, apart from the Guest Quarters, there are two other bedroom areas > the Separate Master Suite and 2 Bedrooms plus Jack and Jill Bath in the front of the home, offering privacy for everyone in the house!  The 2-Bedroom Wing is perfect for children to share.  Each bedroom has its own Vanity, one as a Dressing Vanity and the other a Sink Area.  These private vanities connect to the shared Bathroom, but Unique to this Jack and Jill layout, the bathroom is a full bath, featuring another vanity / sink area.  Two large Walk-In Closets are adjacent to the vanities, serving each of the bedrooms.  Another Wing is located at the back of the home, with a hallway to the Laundry Room and Master Suite.  What a Laundry room this is with storage cabinets, space for a freezer, drying racks, laundry bins, and ironing board.  There is another exit door accessing the backyard and Patios and the hallway ends at the secluded Master Suite.  As expected, the Master Bedroom is very Spacious too (14 x 17), and offers room for the largest of furniture.  A 17- foot long Walk-In Closet off the bedroom has Built-In Cubicles, Racks, and Shelves for easy organizing of clothing.  The Master Bath has a 6-Foot Soaker Tub and Shower, Double Vanities, one with a Seated Dressing Area, and Mirrored Walls spanning the entire countertops.  It is easy to find a place for everything in this home, as there are several Linen, Coat, and Storage Closets, not to mention the large closets in the bedrooms.  No-Fuss Vinyl Tile flooring covers the Living Area, as well as the Kitchen, Baths, and Hobby Room, while carpet was used in the master and front bedrooms.  Outdoor living and entertaining is a breeze under the Covered & Screened back Porch / Patio (shaded by custom fit roller shades) and more open patio beyond in a Courtyard Layout.  An Oversized Garage has space for two large vehicles as well as storage space for everything.  The back yard is fenced, there is an extra cement pad behind the garage for Boat or other vehicle, and parking space along the Driveway has space for 7 or more guest cars.  Call Susan today for more details, or better yet, for a private showing of this property that is So Much home for the Price!
