Just Wondering....What's the scoop on this house on Highland Road?

It seems like this house has been under construction/on the market for several years:
4955 Highland Rd, Baton Rouge, LA 70808

I’ve always wondered. They’ve been building it for at least a decade now.

I use that as a practice house for reno ideas on my actual house

I can only put so much work towards it after each paycheck.

They started construction on that house when I was an undergrad... 17-18 years ago.
I would only buy that house for the land. Total demo IMO, because something is very very wrong with it.

House has terrible symmetry

Absolutely. It’s had zero residents in 15+ years of construction. It makes no sense.

I know something about this as I looked at it at one point several years ago. The builder had this one and another obnoxiously big one in Southdowns for sale at one point. The one in Southdowns has since sold. I figured he would want to get out from under the taxes and debt and put in a low ball offer. Didn’t even blink before rejecting without counter.
House has been sitting empty and largely incomplete the entire time. It’s much worse off than it looks in the ads. Some rooms with no flooring. All kinds of shite incomplete. Worse part is that lots of the plumbing, HVAC and other things will be fricked from sitting so long. I honestly don’t know his end game with it.

My living room is 85 feet wide and 75 feet long, but I have to go through 6 doors to get to my closet

Get a couple offers in the vicinity of list price that he can reject before he burns it down

That's one of Steve Olivier's properties. He wants 2 million for it.
good luck selling it.
