Step into a one-of-a-kind Baton Rouge gem where historic character and modern upgrades come together seamlessly. This beautifully preserved 1935 cottage, ideally positioned on a corner lot in the highly desirable University Gardens, showcases a timeless blend of Spanish and Craftsman architecture with undeniable curb appeal and a charming covered front porch that invites you in. Inside, you’ll find light-filled living and dining spaces that immediately feel warm and welcoming, highlighted by custom plasterwork from acclaimed artisan Jon McArthur, famously known as the “master of plaster.” Rich acacia wood flooring flows throughout the main living areas, creating a perfect balance of elegance and comfort, while the thoughtfully designed kitchen offers a functional and stylish space for everyday living or entertaining. Step outside to your private outdoor retreat featuring a refreshed deck overlooking a spacious yard—perfect for hosting, relaxing evenings, or enjoying your morning coffee. Location is everything, and this home delivers. Just minutes from Perkins Road’s popular dining and coffee spots, LSU, Downtown Baton Rouge, City Park Golf Course, and the scenic LSU Lakes. You’ll also love being near Knock Knock Children’s Museum and right along the vibrant Southdowns parade routes. Homes with this level of character, charm, and location rarely come available—schedule your private showing today before it’s gone.
