This historic University Hills classic was built in 1933 and was modeled after the Petit Trianon, a French chateau on the grounds of the Palace of Versailles, built by Louis XV and used as a private vacation house by Marie Antoinette. The gas lantern at the front door of this "french house" as it is lovingly known, welcomes you to the elegant but yet comfortable home sitting among camelias, live oaks and japanese magnolias. Walking distance to LSU and minutes from downtown makes this location one of the most popular in Baton Rouge. This house underwent a renovation 4 years ago and the results are a traditional but chic home with a 350 square ft guest house(included in living area) adding another bedroom and bath. The open kitchen/dining/family room is a huge space with windows offering lush views at every angle. The kitchen has top of the line stainless appliances including a commercial 6 burner gas stove, a 9 ft. island with prep sink, honed granite counters,Bosch dishwasher, and tons of cabinet space. The custom windows were made to match the original ones in the rest of the house. The walnut and ebony stained wood floors are a sharp contrast to the white cabinetry and the white subway tile backsplash. The new master bath has a walk-in tiled shower area and jerusalem gold limestone countertops. Floor to ceiling subway tile finishes off the tub and shower area. Throw open the doors from the family room to reveal an outdoor living space complete with a screen enclosed salt water pool that you can enjoy bug-free. The landscaping and circular driveway enhances the curb appeal and makes it truly one of a kind. You must see this house now, you'll fall in love with its charm!
