This Acadian cottage was originally built in 1835 in New Orleans and moved to Baton Rouge eventually landing on this double lot at the dead end side of Hebert. It was completely rebuilt to today's standards while preserving the original charm including the wide plank pine flooring seen throughout the entire home, the Italian style fireplace, original glass windows, transoms, doors and hardware. The exterior was designed to compliment the era of the home including the New Orleans style bricked herringbone walkway, the gardens and landscaping and the original exterior shutters. Two live oaks grace the grounds with added landscape lighting, sub surface drainage and irrigation. The wrap around screened porch and views are incredible!
