"Who wants an LSU Avenue address?" CORNER LOT IN COLLEGE TOWN ready for you to build your dream home. Rarely does a corner lot come available in College Town, and this one sits high and dry, ready for you to build. Tailgate and walk to LSU games, enjoy the LSU Lakes and the lifestyle only College Town provides.
College Town, located between LSU’s main campus and the Mississippi River levee, is a residential and campus-adjacent Baton Rouge neighborhood with oak-shaded streets and a walk-to-coffee rhythm. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Highland Road near Lee Drive, where patios, bike traffic, and late-night bites set the tempo. The Chimes anchors game-day tradition, while The Varsity Theatre and Highland Coffees keep the calendar and caffeine steady. Housing leans to mid-century ranches, compact cottages, and small apartment courts tucked behind mature trees. Sidewalks and the levee path shape daily routines, with pockets of green at nearby parks and campus quads.
