Precious Southdowns cottage located on Stuart Avenue in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Baton Rouge. This home offers numerous possibilities for use of space, including two home offices, a workout room, a second living room, a craft room, a playroom, or a third bedroom. This home has so much charm while also offering the benefits of modern finishes. Natural light flows through the many windows in the open kitchen and living area. The updated kitchen includes granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, and a gas stove. The impressive wooden beams, mantle, and other accents provide character in the spacious living area. Original hardwood floors throughout most of the home, and no carpet. Outside, enjoy a large, fully fenced backyard, a 500 sq. ft. partially covered deck, a two-car garage, an air-conditioned workshop, and a shed. Appreciate lower energy costs due to the solar panels equipped with a Tesla Powerwall, which provides whole-house backup during power outages. Minutes away from LSU, I-10, and a variety of dining and shopping options. Located on the Southdowns parade route and steps away from St. Aloysius.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
