A residential community near museums and custom homes
Bocage might not be in the heart of downtown, but it is in the center of the action.

It's within walking distance of wonderful clubs and is very family-oriented. All the Millennials want to be here," says Realtor Vicki Spurlock with Locations Real Estate. Spurlock has sold homes across the area for just over 15 years. "There's a real beauty to the neighborhood. It's older and well-established, with amazing custom-built homes."

French Provincials and cozy cottages
Bocage features a diverse mix of contemporary and established housing. "Every home is quality," Spurlock says. Townhouses mingle with Acadian and French Provincial homes, and ranch styles and cottages line the streets. There are even a few Mediterranean homes mixed in between. Plus, Bocage features condo options in the Jefferson Condominium complex on the community's east end. Lawns are well-maintained; some take advantage of Louisiana's abundant native trees, flowers and shrubs to complete the landscape. Several residential streets have sidewalks, so locals enjoy an evening stroll with their families. "Kids often play outside and ride bikes here," Spurlock says. Housing prices range widely. Townhomes and a few single-family homes can cost as low as $300,000, while newly built homes with six bedrooms and seven bathrooms can cost well over $1 million.

A walk in the Burden gardens
Bocage might not have formal parks, but it still has its share of green spaces. Burden Museum and Gardens stretches nearly 440 acres and provides historical and educational experiences highlighting the state's rich cultural past. The land for the complex was donated to LSU in 1966, and today, it's filled with Louisiana's flora and fauna, comprising three separate sections. The first section of the Burden Museum is the botanical gardens. This section is split into 15 areas, which feature a tropical garden, three miles of walking trails, and much more. The second section is the historic Windrush Garden. Windrush is primarily a green garden with symmetrically designed beds, water features, classical sculptures and ornamentation. For a more traditional park setting, families often head 2 miles up to the road to Independence Community Park. The park features multipurpose fields, tennis courts, a playground and more botanic gardens.
