Of the top 10 home sales last year in East Baton Rouge Parish, three exceeded $2 million, and none was less than $1.4 million. The average price per square foot ranged between $200 and $350 and, in most cases, the sale price came within 3% or less of the list price.

Also noteworthy in 2014 was the relative lack of sales in Country Club of Louisiana, which is, arguably, Baton Rouge’s highest-priced neighborhood. In years past, CCL has claimed as many as half of the top 10 home sales. In 2014, just one home on the list was in CCL, a fact attributed both to a lack of inventory on the market and also the subdivision’s age.“Those houses were built in the 1980s and 1990s so they’re dated and a lot of buyers want new construction,” says Donna Wolff of Re/Max Professional. “Condition of the house is very, very important.”
As for the hottest area for high-end homes in 2014, Bocage and Bocage Lake top the list. Highland Road also saw several high-priced home sales. In fact, the top two deals in 2014 were for the same Highland Road mansion. It sold in August then again in October, after the first buyer had a change of plans. That it sold so quickly the second time is telling, Cutrer says.

Rome, that has always been my favorite too.
Has been for sale for a while. Like since I started dating Jones over 3 years ago.
He lives in one of the neighborhoods across the street, so we pass it a lot.
