NEW ROOF plus classic charm in the heart of College Town, minutes from LSU and A SHORT WALK TO THE LSU LAKES. A magnificent live oak anchors the front yard and sets the tone for a home that pairs real character with everyday livability. Inside, 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths offer flexible space, guest suite, home office, 2 car garage plus additional covered parking. Warm wood floors run throughout. The open kitchen centers on an expansive island, the natural gathering point of the house, while picture windows pull in natural light and frame views of the backyard. That backyard is the headline.

Whether you're settling in or looking at a long-term hold in one of Baton Rouge's most consistently in-demand pockets, 535 Stanford is worth seeing in person.
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.
