About Baton Rouge's Broadmoor Estates

Baton Rouge Relocation Information: Area 41 "Broadmoor & Sherwood Forest"

Baton Rouge & Denham Springs Relocation  Lindsay Pendleton, e-PRO, REW, AHWD: Real Estate Agent in Baton Rouge, LA

 Broadmoor- This is a very beautiful, older neighborhood located off of Sharp and Old Hammond. I have driven through Broadmoor several times and just love the atmosphere. This is another neighborhood that offers that "homey" feeling. The Broadmoor community is very involved with a strong Home Owners Association. What's neat about Broadmoor is that this year they have a 2008 priority project. This is where the community got together and compiled a list of issues they saw as most important regarding their neighborhood. They are:

1. Membership Drive
2. Fundraising for a New Sign
3. Neighborhood Watch
4. Traffic Calming
5. Enforcing Restrictions

So, it's pretty obvious that this community is very active.They keep the residents active by holding events, projects and even picking a yard of the month. If you are looking for a place to make you feel at home, Broadmoor just might be the one for you.

Sherwood Forest- I have a special place in my heart for Sherwood Forest. In my younger years and after I moved from the LSU area, this is where I basically lived. Of course, at that age I was living in apartments. Sherwood is filled with apartment dwellers up and down the strip.Sherwood Forest is convienant to the Interstate, restaurants, stores, businesses and more.

The Sherwood Forest neighborhood is a nice size neighborhood, like Broadmoor. Both of these neighborhoods are much older but are still nice. Every time I pass through the neighborhoods are well kept and you can always see people strolling their children or walking their dog.
