Description:

Very Spacious Home in Historic Rosedale, Louisiana, just 5 Minutes off I10 and 20 to Baton Rouge. Your drive to the home, along Scenic Highway 77 follows Bayou Grosse Tete where some of the largest and oldest Live Oaks in the state of Louisiana are located. Many French Acadians, after their expulsion from Nova Scotia in the 1700s, navigated this very bayou as they searched for a place to call home. The 1.34-Acre Setting is Absolutely Beautiful! There is a 300-year old Live Oak on the right corner of the front yard and other Massive Oaks surround the home and property.

Antique / Old Brick adorns the exterior in this over 2,000 Square Foot Living Area Home. A Central Wall of Old Brick gives the home an Open Feeling with family room, foyer, and dining on one side and the kitchen on the other. Throughout these rooms for living, Exposed Stained Beams accent the ceilings. In the Family Room a Fireplace centers an entire Wall of Old Brick and there are nice views of the yard and oaks through double sliding doors, which lead to the Covered and Open Patios. A Formal Dining Room has enough space to accommodate a big crowd and large dining furniture. One long room houses a Desk Area and Window Seat on one end, Breakfast Area in the middle, and Roomy Kitchen on the other. Recent years have seen the kitchen get a facelift of Painted Cabinets, Dishwasher, Gas Range Top, and Wall Oven. This room has lots of windows and a door leading to the Screened Back Porch and Awesome Views of the back property, more huge oaks, and the old plantation home next door. There are 3 Bedrooms / 2 Baths, one being in the Master Suite, and the bathroom tiles are white, which makes redecorating much easier than sometimes the case with older homes. Two of the bedrooms have a Wall of Built-In Drawers and Storage and the Master has Two Closets.

An oversized Double Garage can house two vehicles easily and there is an additional covered parking area for a boat or really large vehicle. As well as A Storage Room, there is a darling Acadian building of Old Brick in the back yard that could be a Workshop, Office, or Potting Shed / Greenhouse – you decide! The Covered Patio has a wall of kitchen shelves with sink and cooking space, as well as a gas jet. This could be a really outdoor kitchen conversion! The immediate back yard is landscaped and enclosed in picket fencing, overlooking the large back property beyond. There are several types and varieties of bearing fruit trees. For some, this home might need a little facelift, but what a gem to do such with and as far as the setting – this would take years to duplicate!

Description:

WHAT STYLE! WHAT FLAIR! Fabulous 1920s French Cottage is nearly 3,000 Living Area and laden with Architectural Antiques and Details! In a quiet small town along the Mississippi, West from Downtown Baton Rouge, “The Oaks” subdivision name is so apropos, as Massive Live Oaks shade the avenues of this charming part of Port Allen. The Mississippi levee, a short walk away, offers panoramic views of downtown and on 4^th of July, the “best seat in the house” for annual fireworks display. One can live in this quiet old neighborhood, yet be anywhere in Baton Rouge in 20 minutes or less. A Landmark Property always noticed by passersby, in recent years “She” was Renovated and got a New Addition of Family Room downstairs and Master Suite up. Fret Work adorns the façade and the Deep-Set and Expansive Front Porch is more like an outdoor room… great place to gather with family and friends! With Fret-Work Railings and Hand Painted checkerboard Wood Floors, the porch is just a hint of what awaits inside. One of the Owners is a Designer and it is just evident everywhere!

An entertainer’s delight, the home boasts both Formal and Family Areas with Living Room, Dining Room, Family Sitting & Dining, plus a Keeping Room. Though the Dining Room is currently a “Fantasy Playroom for the Children”, nothing is built-in or permanent. High Ceilings, Detailed Millwork, and Designer Window Treatments grace every room in the house. Original to the home are Red Oak Strip Floors, Hand-Laid Tiles, Moldings, Door Hardware, Carved Banisters, and as with older homes – windows galore! During the renovation, Antique finds from New Orleans, New York, Canada, & Europe were brought in and can now be found from entry through the Carved Cypress Front Door to the Cabinet Hardware, Reclaimed Tin Vent Hood, to the Gorgeous Stained Glass Windows of the Family Room, Stairwell, and Master Bath. Antique Leaded Glass Doors grace the Living Room, Central Hall, and Master Bath. Old Cypress Beaded boards form the wainscoting of two Bathrooms and Antique Light Fixtures accent many areas throughout.

The Formal Living Room focal point is definitely the Original Fireplace & Mantel, but it's the Five "silk draped" single Windows and the views of two sides of the yard that give this room its warmth! The fireplace is Wood Burning and still functions properly – rare in vintage homes! Arched Casements form the openings into the Foyer and Dining Room, with repeated use of archways in several parts of the house. Of course the Kitchen has all the Latest Conveniences; Dishwasher, Side-by-Side Refrigerator, Wall Oven, Gas 5-burner Range, and Warming Bin, but most are cleverly concealed within cabinetry and drawers, keeping the room’s feel of a French Farmhouse. Venatino Slab Marble forms the Countertops, stamped tin the backsplash, and an Antique Porcelain Farmhouse Sink, rare with Double Basins and Drain-boards, adds to the ambiance. Custom designed Alderwood Cabinetry serves the Kitchen while a matching double-sided Hutch serves the Family Room as Entertainment Center and Keeping Room as China and Wet Bar. The Keeping is a unique “niche” off the kitchen near the stairwell, that can function as a sitting area, breakfast nook, or left open during gatherings for use of the wet bar. The downstairs addition is a Spacious Family Room with Triple French Doors opening to a Side Porch entry and Courtyard area. A Fireplace with mantel fashioned after the original in the living room is in the Family Sitting Area, and an Antique Farmhouse Stained Window is the focal of the Family Dining Area. A Guest Bedroom downstairs offers access through French Doors to the Pool / Cabana side yard, built-ins with window seat, and a Murphy bed (lifting up and down out of the wall) – what a Versatile room!

Upstairs, an expansive central hallway leads to the Other Three Bedrooms, with the entire upstairs in wood and tile floors. The center Bedroom is a “Little Girl’s Wonderland” with vaulted ceiling, dormer window, and Hand-Painted Mural - such a sweet room for a Nursery too! On either end of the hallway lies two very large Bedroom Suites – Bedroom # 3 and the Master. One enters each Suite via a vestibule of sorts, flanked by a Full Bath and Closets, then each vestibule opens to a super spacious bedroom beyond. A rare find for older homes, the Master Suite has a large walk-in closet and Gorgeous Master Bath! Dressed to the max, this bathroom has an Antique Footed Tub, separate shower, Sideboard made Vanity, one set of those Lovely Leaded French Doors, and a Stained / Leaded Glass Window. The Master Bedroom is very spacious with unique areas like the “bed wall” with wall lamps and Dormer decorated with Beautiful Drapery and Chandelier forming a Lady's Dressing / Vanity Area. From the double windows of the master bedroom there is an awesome view of a 200-year old Live Oak.

Even the outdoor spaces and yard received much thought and detail, evident in the Professional Landscaping, sprinkler system, expansive Brick Terrace, Side Porch and Courtyard, backyard Greenspace, and picket fencing forming a separate area for the Inground Pool and Cabana. The cabana is a pagoda design with tin roofing and has electrical service and Ceiling Fans. Old Saint Joe & Hard Tan Bricks, salvaged during demolition of a downtown landmark, form the steps, terraces, patio, and walkways. There are 2 Central Air and Heating units (one up and one down), 2 Water Heaters, and a transferable termite contract with Orkin that has been Ongoing since the ‘70s. WONDERFUL HOME … THERE’S MORE … JUST NO MORE ROOM! Call Susan for a full list of amenities and antique appointments, or better yet, for your private showing!

The home is just a block from the Mississippi Levee-Top Ferry Landing Park with the best views to be found of the Baton Rouge Skyline. However, the real benefit to this picturesque area is that I10 and the Mississippi Bridge are just 3 minutes away!

A Pretty Façade, the Front Porch with Arched Openings makes for a nice welcome to family and friends, and a nice place to relax in the swing. The near 1600 square feet of Living Area home is believed to have been built circa 1930 and features High Ceilings and the Original Deep Moldings. Gleaming Wood Floors are found throughout, except for the kitchen and baths that are Tiled. The Living Room has large Corner Windows overlooking the huge Oak trees and there’s a Formal Dining Room; presently used as one son’s bedroom – and as you will see in the photos, these boys are avid LSU fans. However, there are still 3 Bedrooms and 2 Baths. The Kitchen updates include new cabinets, Gas Range / Oven, and Tile Flooring. There is kitchen “Closet Pantry”, unusual in older homes, and all the closets in the house are rather large for a home built during this era too. The smallest bedroom was converted to include a Laundry (within a large closet area), yet there is still plenty of room for bedroom furniture. Bedroom #2 is a roomy 13.5 x 14 area, with one entire wall Built-In with desk, shelves, and drawers (this will remain). Also Updated recently was the Hall Bathroom with New Tile Flooring, Fixtures, and Block Glass Window. The Master Bedroom has its own bathroom (with tub / shower) and Cornered Windows like those in the Living Room make for great Natural Light in the Master Area! A fenced Rear Yard has Privacy Height boarding on the “neighbor sides” and Picket Fencing on the Carport side. The “handyman” in the family will love the Workshop with electricity and built-in Workbench / Storage areas. Low Maintenance Siding minimizes the home's upkeep. THIS ONE CAN’T LAST LONG – IT’S JUST TOO CUTE! The “Price is Nice” too at $155.000.

Description:

This Beautiful French Design is located in the popular Brusly School District. Built by a local builder just 4 years ago, the home is like new and is the design of Andy McDonald, one of Louisiana’s Premiere Home Designers. Conveniently located just 10 minutes to Downtown Baton Rouge, the home’s proximity to LA 1 South, running the length of the Brusly / Addis corridor, makes for easy access to Interstate 10 East or West and industry to the South. Community amenities and shopping include restaurants, boutiques, specialty shops, medical offices, vets, meat markets, Wal-Mart, and a new YMCA. And with Baton Rouge so near, all the big city has to offer is easy to obtain as well, however, life on the Westside offers a more Relaxed / Small Town attitude. The home is in desirable Brusly Oaks subdivision, where the entire subdivision’s perimeter is fenced for privacy, but it is not a gated community so the local municipality can maintain the roads. A community park and ball field is adjacent to the subdivision, giving kids a great place to ride bikes and play. This home truly is a Beautiful Design and there were no details left out! This attention to detail begins on the outside with the home’s great curb appeal, and continues throughout the inside. The use of Old / Used Bricks, Multi-level Roofing, True Stucco, Hinged / Working Shutters, and Solid Spanish Cedar exterior Doors all reflect a true French style. With 2,154 Living Area and 4 Bedrooms / 2.5 Baths, this is not a place that will be quickly outgrown! Entering through the Front Portico via French Doors, a person steps into the Foyer, with the sprawling living area just beyond. Warm Colors, Exquisite Crown & Detail Moldings, High Ceilings, Bronze Fixtures & Hardware, and Authentic handmade “Saltillo” Tile Flooring grace the entire living space in the Dining, Living Room, Breakfast, Kitchen, and down the halls. The unique use of Handmade Tiles throughout the home; in Flooring, Fireplace Surround, Countertops and Backsplashes give a truly Unique Design Touch! The Open, yet semi-walled Living Area layout is perfect for entertaining family and friends. There is no shortage of Natural Light here due to the Expansive Windows in the Dining, Living and Breakfast Room. Presently the homeowners have the Formal Dining Room furnished as a Sitting Area for quiet reading or conversation a bit away from the Living Room, but a Fabulous Bejeweled Chandelier and Arched Wooden Window make it a perfect room for either use. Taking Center Stage in the Living Room is the Wood-Burning Fireplace with Handmade Tile Surround, the same tiles used in the adjacent kitchen. A Sunny and Very Spacious Breakfast Room next to the kitchen is a great place to start the day! Entry to the Large Backyard and Covered Back Porch are through another Spanish Cedar door in the breakfast area. Separating breakfast from kitchen, a Raised Bar / Countertop is perfect for added space for serving or extra seating at mealtime. The joining of lovely design with functionality makes the Kitchen a place that any cook would love! Custom Cabinetry with Turned Rope Accents, a Glassed Door section, and lovely Bronze Hardware house lots of storage options. And, a Walk-In Corner Pantry offers even more storage. As expected, all the appliances are Built In and of exceptional quality, making meal time and clean up a breeze. Hand Painted Tiles cover the Countertops, with the use of Relief Tiles and a Mosaic accenting the Backsplash (See the Kitchen Detail Photos). Just across from the kitchen there is a Half Bath / Powder Room with Pedestal Sink, convenient to the living area and for company. Down the hall from the kitchen are the Laundry Room and the doorway to the Garage. This door to the garage, as with all exterior doors, is of Solid Spanish Cedar. In a “Split Bedroom Plan” that offers privacy to everyone in the house, the Master Suite is located on one side of the home, while the other 3 Bedrooms and a Hall / Hollywood Bath are located on the other side. Entering the Master Suite, one is instantly aware that the builder did not “drop” the details and design found in the main areas of the home, as High Ceilings, Crown Moldings, and Bronze Hardware and Fixtures continue here. Wood Floors accent the Master Bedroom and Porcelain Ceramic Tiles cover the Bath floors. A Garden Tub Alcove in the Master Bath makes for a great place to unwind at the end of the day, with its lovely Leaded / Opaque Glass Window. There is also a Separate Shower, Walk-In Closet, Toilet Closet, and Double Vanities for easy sharing of space. The Vanities are Very Pretty with Special Framed Mirrors having lights built in to these mirrors, Bronze Fixtures, and a Backsplash of Slate Tiles (See the Master Bath Detail Photos). On the opposite side of the house from the master suite is a Wing where the other 3 Bedrooms and a Hollywood Bath are located. This Hollywood Bath is accessible from the Hallway and the front Bedroom via 2 Separate Vanity Areas, with a shared Bath and Toilet area in between. The Bedrooms are all Nice Sized, have Walk-In or Large Closets, and flooring of Oak Laminate. The present homeowners are currently using one of the extra bedrooms as a Home Office / Computer Room. The Double Garage is rather cheerful with a front window, has space for Two Cars to park, as well as room for outdoor tools and equipment to be stored. The Back Porch / Patio makes for a Great Place for Outdoor Entertaining with its Exposed-Rafter Roofing, Arbors planted with Confederate Jasmine and Natural Gas Jet for barbequing. $274,900.
