About this home
This is one of those Garden District Treasures. New roof and new primary bath off first bedroom. Fenced rear yard with shade trees galore. Home was remodeled years ago and that investor took in a portion of the front porch to have a sunroom addition. It can be used as a keeping room or a special dining room. Many options for that room with fantastic light across the front with a wall full of windows. Old pine floors throughout, newer central H & A, rear bedroom has tons of light, as well. This is such a nice location for Garden District Lovers. You can still add your touches and make this home yours forever. Walking distance to city park, dog park and a great little restaurant at Park Blvd. Easy to show. Add this one to your list.
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.
