    What's special

    Key-shaped poolMagnificent live oaksAttached boat portCovered patioPrivate backyard oasisUpdated stainless appliancesQuartz sink
    Some homes make an impression; this one holds a history and perhaps even the key to your next chapter. Built in 1991 and treasured by its original owners, this Riverbend home has been the backdrop for 35 years of sweet memories. Two magnificent live oaks offer timeless Louisiana charm that cannot be recreated. Inside, the thoughtfully designed floor plan feels both welcoming and wonderfully livable. Manufactured wood flooring flows seamlessly through the living room, dining room, and all four bedrooms. A wood-burning fireplace warms the main gathering space, while a second fireplace and custom built-ins make the primary suite an unexpected retreat. Two guest bedrooms feature walk-in closets with built-in shelving, and the guest bath offers a double vanity. Updated stainless appliances and a quartz sink complement the kitchen, where custom cabinetry provides storage galore. The heart-stealer waits just beyond the sunroom: a private backyard oasis centered around a delightfully distinctive key-shaped pool. Perhaps it's only fitting, because this may be the key to living your best life—morning coffee in the sunroom, sunny afternoons in the water, cocktails beneath the covered patio, and laughter lingering long after a backyard barbecue. Mature native landscaping surrounds the pool, porch, and patio, creating a lush, private setting. A new pump, filtration system, and automatic cleaner make pool days even easier. An attached boat port, decked attic, and indoor and outdoor storage ensure there is a place for everything. Improvements include new HVAC and ductwork, an updated gas water heater, a newer roof, hurricane-impact Window World windows with a lifetime warranty, and a Certified Alarm security system. Close enough to bike to LSU and Downtown Baton Rouge, with convenient access to the interstate, shopping, and dining, this is more than a one-owner home. It's a rare blend of character, comfort, and joyful living, ready for someone new to unlock all that comes next.
