About this House

Nothing to fix, nothing to guess about — this one's done. Every inch of this home was taken down to the studs and rebuilt right: new electrical, new plumbing, new flooring, and a brand new kitchen and bath. The roof? Installed yesterday. Architectural shingles, zero wear, decades of life left on it. At 1,292 square feet, it's a smart, efficient 3-bedroom layout that lives bigger than the number suggests — no wasted space, no wasted money heating and cooling rooms you don't use. Step outside and the lot does the talking. This is a big, usable yard — fully fenced in the back for privacy, kids, or pets — anchored by a 30x24 shop with a garage and roll-up doors on a poured concrete slab. Whether that's a workshop, storage for equipment and toys, or a side-business setup, it's already built and ready. Add covered parking, plus generous covered porches on both the front and back, and you've got a home built for actually living outside as much as in.

    "I have lived in this neighborhood 11 1/2 years, my neighbors are friendly, kind and helpful when needed. There aren’t too many children seen outside often. Most neighbors take care of their yards, it’s a small community, great family community, I’ve never had anything stolen out of my yard, haven’t heard of any home break in’s. I just needed more space since adopting."

    "Do not believe the hype that this is the 3rd safest city in EBR. This area is horrible all around. Baker continually declines year after year due to bad leadership. We are so glad to be out this area. Rude customer everywhere you go, trash everywhere, blight, and terrible schools! "
