Cottage plus garage apartment on Highland Road just between Staring & Magnolia Woods! The cottage was formerly a Pentagon Barracks, moved to Highland Road. Entering from the front porch, there is an open kitchen/living/dining area, with island, and two bedrooms/bath on one wing, with master & bath at rear. Plus there is a large den addition at the rear that overlooks the expansive arpent lot --337 feet deep. At the rear of the backyard is a detached garage that has been converted into a one bedroom apartment with wood floors, studio kitchen, full bath, and large living/dining area combo. Perfect investment property (front house leases for $1200 and garage apt leases for $500), OR buy and live in until you can build your dream home along Highland Road, OR buy for your college students in the main house and reserve the guest house for your visits to BR for LSU games! That is what this homeowner did -- students lived in the main house, parents enjoyed the guest house for football weekends! The best of both worlds!
