About this home
Held by one family since 1966 and never sold outside it, this land returns to the market at a price built to move it. They bought these two lots on what was still a gravel road and held them through three generations while southeast Baton Rouge grew up around the fence line. What remains is something the Tiger Bend and Hoo Shoo Too corridor no longer produces: 6.07 high, open acres across two recorded parcels, with mature hardwoods, a fenced boundary, and no HOA, no architectural committee, and no timeline to build. The setting explains the value. Minutes away, The Sanctuary, Mallard Lakes, and White Oak Landing anchor one of the parish’s most established luxury corridors, with area listings from the $900s to $2.6 million on lots that top out near 1.4 acres. This tract is four times the size of anything inside those gates, with city water, natural gas, and electric service at the road and septic on site. Build one estate across the full spread or build on one parcel and hold the second. Two recorded lots give the next owner rare flexibility. The existing home conveys strictly as a teardown and the price reflects it. With an acceptable offer, the sellers will contribute an allowance toward demolition, delivering a clean homesite on ground that took six decades to become available. A recorded 25 foot drainage servitude at the rear of Lot 5 does not affect the primary homesite. Sold as is. Per the sellers, the 2016 floodwater never reached the home itself. Buyer to independently verify flood zone, acreage, utilities, and all listing information. Sixty years in one family. Ready for yours.
Southeast Baton Rouge, located between Highland Road and Airline Highway, is a suburban and commercial Shenandoah neighborhood with a bayou-laced landscape and a retail corridor feel. The character concentrates around the Jones Creek Road and Coursey Boulevard intersection, where grocery plazas, taquerias, boba counters, and service storefronts keep the sidewalks in motion. Housing trends toward brick ranches and newer subdivisions set behind live oaks and drainage canals. The daily rhythm follows the shopping strips along Coursey and the quieter loops of neighborhood streets. Community pillars include Red Stick Farmers Market, Mansurs on the Boulevard, and Baton Rouge Gallery.

Two recorded parcels totaling 6.07 high, open acres in the Tiger Bend and Hoo Shoo Too corridor, on the market for the first time in sixty years. One family bought these lots on what was still a gravel road in 1966 and held them through three generations while southeast Baton Rouge grew up around the fence line. What remains is what this corridor no longer produces: acreage, mature hardwoods, and no HOA, no architectural committee, and no timeline to build. Minutes away, The Sanctuary, Mallard Lakes, and White Oak Landing anchor one of the parish's most established luxury corridors, with area listings from the $900s to $2.6 million on lots that top out near 1.4 acres. This tract is four times the size of anything inside those gates, with public water, natural gas, and electric service at the road and septic on site. Build one estate across the full spread or build on one parcel and hold the second. Two recorded lots give the next owner rare flexibility. An existing structure on Lot 5 conveys strictly as a teardown and the price reflects it. With an acceptable offer, the sellers will contribute an allowance toward demolition, delivering a clean homesite on ground that took six decades to become available. A recorded 25 foot drainage servitude and nonexclusive servitude of access runs along a dry bayou in the rear portion of Lot 5 and does not affect the primary homesite. Sold as is. Per the sellers, the 2016 floodwater never reached the home. Buyer to independently verify flood zone, acreage, utilities, zoning, and all listing information.
