THIS IS OUR PRIVATE GUEST HOUSE --- 1 Br, 1 Ba in 1,150 sq ft --- with a comfortable great room, complete kitchen with gas stove, large bedroom with two walk-in closets, big bathroom with tub-shower, and a laundry room with washer and dryer. It comes fully furnished (including linens, dishes, kitchen appliances, etc.), but you may choose to use your own furnishings and store ours. The guesthouse is under our roof but separated by a carport with a workshop and tool room. Behind it is a 1/4 acre+ fenced, grassed lot inside our property walls for guests to enjoy.
EASY ACCESS: Located in the heart of Baton Rouge next to the Baton Rouge Country Club on Fairway Drive, this handsome guest house offers safety, privacy and easy access to restaurants, shopping, groceries, hospitals and medical help, and all major throughfares. The guesthouse and our home are on high ground and have never flooded. This entire property has been completely remodeled and is designed to be easy-to-live-in, handicap-accessible, and secure. Our present guest will be leaving by April 30th.
BUDGET STABILITY: OUR RENTAL AGREEMENT INCLUDES EVERYTHING --- $2,000 per month, all inclusive --- UTILITIES (electricity, gas, water, sewer, trash and garbage removal, pest control, etc.), INTERNET ACCESS, and SECURITY (gated access, lighting and property cameras) and is MONTH-TO-MONTH AT $2,000 (UNCHANGING --- DESPITE RISING UTILITY COSTS) with the goal being a flexible, long-term rental. First and last month’s rent and a refundable $600 security deposit are due prior to signing the rental agreement. Rent-cost adjustments can be made for help around the house and yard.
SAFETY: PROTECTING YOUR VEHICLE , YOUR PROPERTY & YOU: Both the guesthouse and its parking are within the 8-foot walls and locked driveway gates that surround our well-lighted property. Only our guesthouse residents have access inside the gates (via a furnished clicker to be used from your vehicle): Drive up, click to open and close the gates, then park beside the apartment’s kitchen door: You will be safe and protected --- no fearful walking alone from your car to your home. Our inside-the-gate parking also safeguards your guests and their vehicles.
YOU PERSONALLY ARE PROTECTED --- BOTH PARTIES ARE GUARANTEED THE FREEDOM TO ADDRESS LIFESTYLE CHANGES, ETC. WITH ONE MONTH’S NOTICE: Two years ago an LSU opera student was offered an internship in Spain --- he was free to go because he was not trapped in a long-term lease. When a gay couple had "issues" and discovered that they simply did not suit, they were free to go and handle their problems. Another LSU gal was accepted at Emory law school. We have never exercised this option because we've been delighted with everyone who has lived here.
WE AND OUR GUEST HOUSE ARE LOOKING FOR COMPANIONABLE, POLITICALLY LIBERAL TENANTS. We are an LSU professor and his journalist wife, both retired. We are comfortable with dogs --- and have two large English mastiffs --- so good-natured dogs are welcome but smoking and cats are not. Our interests are widely varied, and we welcome those who like gardening, cooking, building things, intellectual and artistic pursuits, and enjoying life. Our ideal goal is to find folks who are like us and want to be private and have the security of being near to others who can offer support and help, if needed.
If you are looking for a QUIET, SAFE PLACE WITH FIXED MONTHLY EXPENSES, what we have to offer may interest you. It seems to us a good idea to figure out if we would suit and to decide what needs to be done to accommodate you before you move in. If you would like to come, meet us and see the property, please call Charles show contact info or email show contact info .
