How about this location? This home sits just off Highland Road, less than a mile from I-10 and directly across from Highland Place, home of French Market Bistro. Imagine walking to dinner at one of Baton Rouge’s best restaurants. The semi-open triple split floor plan centers on a large kitchen that flows into a spacious keeping room and breakfast area, all with brick floors. The living room has custom built-ins on both sides of a brick fireplace and a wall of windows that fills the space with natural light and looks out over the back porch, patio, and yard. The primary suite is generously sized, and the bath offers a corner garden tub and a large custom stone shower. The primary closet connects directly to the laundry room, which makes laundry day a lot easier. There’s no carpet anywhere, and you’ll love the wood floors in the living room, dining room, and bedrooms. The custom touches just keep going: tray ceilings, transoms over doorways, detailed trim and molding, and more. Light, bright colors run throughout, and the roof is only three years old.
South Bluebonnet-Nicholson, located between Bluebonnet Boulevard and Nicholson Drive, is a residential and commercial Baton Rouge neighborhood with river-bend geography and a mix of apartment communities and established subdivisions. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Nicholson Drive corridor by LSU, where game-day energy, patios, and late-night bites cluster in a tight strip. Local pillars such as The Chimes, Louie’s Cafe, and Varsity Theatre set a distinctly Baton Rouge rhythm. Streets shift from mid-century ranch homes to newer townhomes and student-oriented buildings, with pockets of mature trees. The Mississippi River levee and nearby lakes shape the outdoor cadence, while Bluebonnet’s retail spine keeps daily errands grounded.
