13812 Bellacosa Ave, Baton Rouge, LA, 70817
About This Home
Located in the heart of 70817 in the Bellacosa community, this 5-year-old home is one of those rare finds that immediately stands out the second you compare it to anything else nearby. With nearly 1,600 square feet, an open layout, and NO CARPET ANYWHERE, it already checks the boxes—but it’s everything beyond that that makes this one different. The kitchen, dining, and living spaces flow seamlessly together, making the home feel open, functional, and easy to live in day-to-day or when entertaining. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a gas range, a large island, and plenty of cabinet space—designed for both convenience and style. The primary suite offers a true retreat with a walk-in closet, double vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower, while the additional bedrooms are NOTICEABLY LARGER THAN WHAT YOU’LL TYPICALLY FIND IN THIS PRICE RANGE, giving you more flexibility and comfort. Now here’s where this home separates itself from the rest of the neighborhood: Positioned in the FIRST PHASE OF BELLACOSA, this home sits on a LARGER LOT WITH MORE SPACE AROUND YOU—something you simply don’t get in the later phases. The difference is obvious the moment you drive through. Instead of feeling packed in, you actually have room to breathe. Step into the backyard and you’ll get PEACEFUL WATER VIEWS along with mature BLUEBERRY TREES THAT PRODUCE FRUIT SEASONALLY—a unique feature that adds both charm and function. And then there are the upgrades—because this one wasn’t built standard: • FULL IRRIGATION SYSTEM for easy yard maintenance • GUTTERS AROUND THE ENTIRE HOME • FULL SMART HOME INTEGRATION — control locks, garage, thermostat, and lighting from your phone or Alexa • UPSCALE EXTERIOR LIGHTING ON SENSORS • LIGHT SWITCHES WITH BUILT-IN NIGHTLIGHTS Every detail was designed to make living here easier, smarter, and more comfortable. The backyard is fully fenced with privacy fencing and includes a patio space perfect for relaxing or hosting. Major systems
