Are you trying to find a great neighborhood to call home? I am a Baton Rouge Real Estate Agent that loves this area. One of my favorite neighborhoods is Shenandoah. I am sure you have heard of it considering it's one of the biggest neighborhoods in Baton Rouge. Did you know Shenandoahwas accidentally marked as a city because it's so big? It's true. Shenandoahis a extremely large subdivision that was built in the late 1970's and 1980's. It's located between South Harrel's Ferry & Tiger Bend Roads, right by Jones Creek. The Shenandoah area continues to maintain it's market value and steadily increases due to the neighborhoods being built around it and because Shenandoah's homeowners take very good care of their homes.
If you plan on moving to Shenandoah, a good organization to join is the Shenandoah Homeowners Association. The membership dues are $50.00 a year. This isn't much considering how much it helps YOUR neighborhood. The money allows for certain projects to go on within the neighborhood and also allows Sherriff's Duty patrol hours. This is so you can feel safe at night and know that your home is safe when you are on vacation.
What does Shenandoah have to offer? Well, besides a beautiful neighborhood to come home to, a number of things. Surrounding Shenandoah is good food, entertainment, shopping and more. It has everything you need with out you having to venture out into the city of Baton Rouge. Most everything you need is off or on the corner of Jones Creek.
