2047 Terrace Ave, Baton Rouge, LA 70806 listing details

Fabulous, vintage home on two lots with original unpainted millwork, wood floors & hand stenciled borders, walls & ceilings by artisans in 1932. Many original imported art deco light fixtures & wall scones remain. Masonry fireplace and cathedral ceiling in large living room with built-ins on either side of fireplace. Home was completely rewired in 2003 and at that time central heat and air were added to the home. In 2005, a dehumidifier was added to the HVAC system. There were walk up stairs to attic originally and in 2004 some former attic space was converted to living area that makes a nice office and bonus room. There is a garage apartment (currently leased until 10/15/13), but not metered separately. The kitchen was completely remodeled in 2010. Between the kitchen and lovely dining room is a quaint breakfast room and butler's pantry. Many architectural features not to be missed. Cedar closets & walk down basement. Foundation was stabilized recently and warranty is transferable. Some brickwork was repointed. Utility bill (electric & gas) for the last year average less than $145 per month. Don't wait to see this home in the Garden District that was named as Top 10 Great Neighborhood for 2012 by American Planning Association (APA).
