About this home
Nestled in the heart of the sought-after Garden District, this beautifully renovated cottage is the perfect blend of timeless character and modern comfort. Thoughtfully reimagined in 2017–2018 with exceptional attention to detail, this light-filled home offers inviting spaces designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Inside, you'll find formal living and dining rooms, along with a spacious den featuring custom built-in bookshelves. This space was originally the third bedroom, and can easily be converted back to suit your needs. The stunning kitchen is a true showpiece, boasting custom ceiling-height cabinetry, slab granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and a sunny breakfast area that flows seamlessly into the dining room. A charming sunroom (laundry room off this space) overlooks the covered outdoor living space, where a brick countertop with a large antique sink creates the perfect setting for entertaining & gardening. The landscaped backyard offers a private retreat with plenty of room to relax and enjoy. The serene primary suite features a generous walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath with an oversized custom-built shower. Additional highlights include refinished original hardwood floors, tall ceilings, stone countertops throughout, generator, and dual secure electric gated parking with access from both the front driveway and rear alley. Lovingly maintained and updated to perfection, this truly is a happy home—filled with natural light, rich character, and thoughtful finishes throughout. Move-in ready and waiting for its next owner to fall in love.
Roseland Terrace, located between Government Street and Florida Boulevard, is a residential and historic Baton Rouge neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and leafy, sidewalk-lined blocks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Government Street corridor near Jefferson Highway, where porch-lit eateries, small galleries, and local bars set an after-work rhythm. Architectural details lean toward low-slung brick facades, deep carports, and generous front lawns that soften the street grid. City Park and the Baton Rouge Gallery add a cultural counterpoint to the everyday calm. The annual Mid City Makers Market at Circa 1857 brings a craft-forward pulse to nearby weekends. A short drive south, the LSU Museum of Art anchors bigger-city programming without changing the neighborhood’s quiet tone.
