Let yourself be transported to a new world as you step into this meticulously cared-for custom home steeped in character and history, nestled beneath the sprawling limbs of a registered 300+ year-old live oak on iconic Highland Road. Blending Italian design with Southern charm, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Baton Rouge heritage. The first level has antique pine floors throughout that features two bedrooms, including the original primary suite--generously sized with a fireplace, walk-in closet, and French doors that frame the lush courtyard gardens. With endless intricate details, this home must truly be experienced in person to see them all and learn the full story behind each one! At the heart of the home that has been freshly painted is an inviting family room and the kitchen offers granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, a gas cooktop, and a brand-new refrigerator. You'll feel like you're in a magical treehouse as you step outside to enjoy breezy afternoons on the rear screened porch, where views of the majestic oak tree provide a stunning natural backdrop of the beautifully landscaped backyard that slopes gently to Bayou Fountain. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is a true retreat with antique French doors, two private balconies--one overlooking the oak-shaded backyard and the other the New Orleans-style courtyard and historic cypress barn. The ensuite bath features travertine double vanities, a soaking tub, and a spa-like shower, along with multiple walk-in closets and a laundry room with new, custom cabinetry. Timeless, rooted in history, and full of soul--this home offers both beauty and substance in one of Baton Rouge's most storied locations.
