Description

One of the few newer homes on Highland Rd. Less than 3 miles to the gates of LSU. Gas lanterns and an inviting front door with sidelights, greet you on the fantastic front porch spanning the entire front of the home. Through the large foyer into a huge den with vaulted and beamed ceiling, gas fireplace, built-ins and beautiful chestnut wood floors make it a wonderful area for entertaining. And with the open floor plan everything flows through dining and kitchen. Gas cooktop, island, granite and appliances...One of the few newer homes on Highland Rd. Less than 3 miles to the gates of LSU. Gas lanterns and an inviting front door with sidelights, greet you on the fantastic front porch spanning the entire front of the home. Through the large foyer into a huge den with vaulted and beamed ceiling, gas fireplace, built-ins and beautiful chestnut wood floors make it a wonderful area for entertaining. And with the open floor plan everything flows through dining and kitchen. Gas cooktop, island, granite and appliances (refrigerator to remain), fill all needs. And flanking all these open areas are a bank of windows across entire back. French doors lead to an expansive back porch that rivals the front one. And the view overlooks a sloping back yard with one of Highland Roads historic oaks. Many more plusses....large bedrooms and ceiling fans, master bath equals master bedroom in size, lots of closets and the half bath downstairs has handicap-size door opening. Large laundry, beautiful staircase, circle drive for off street parking make this a special home.
