740 France Street

Original wood floors, a classic front porch, and two centuries of neighborhood history right outside the door: this updated 2 bedroom, 1 bath Craftsman bungalow sits in historic Beauregard Town in the heart of downtown Baton Rouge. This home could serve a variety of uses: as a primary residence, an investment property (great for long-term or short-term rental), or even a commercial office! The current owners refreshed it inside and out with new paint and accent colors, new light fixtures, new appliances, and fresh landscaping. Tall ceilings, crown molding, a transom front door, and French doors carry the character throughout. The kitchen features sage green cabinetry, new wood countertops, open shelving, a farmhouse sink, and new stainless appliances including a gas range. The bathroom pairs a clawfoot tub with blue beadboard wainscoting, and the bedrooms offer built-in storage. Relax on the porch or in the fenced backyard shaded by mature trees. It is conveniently located just minutes from downtown dining, the riverfront, the State Capitol, and LSU. Schedule your showing today!
