Modern Greek Revival
The Highlands
Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Nestled within a historic, coveted neighborhood lined with mature trees, this 4,000 square foot residence emanates timeless refinement. Originally home to longtime friends turned clients, the owners sought a shift from traditional to transitional style, aiming to honor their past while embracing their present and future. With Jerad’s expert guidance, the interiors now merge cherished antiques with contemporary elements, reflecting the family’s evolving tastes and lifestyle.
Stepping into the grand entry loggia sets the stage for the home’s elegant yet welcoming ambiance. Walls in cream grasscloth and a silver-washed Oushak runner greet guests with understated sophistication.
The stunning kitchen showcases a fresh, modern grid-wood and tile flooring, complemented by custom-stained cabinetry. This blend perfectly balances warmth and luminosity, creating a space conducive to both culinary endeavors and relaxed family gatherings.
In the master suite, a classic retreat awaits, with faux elephant skin walls and Parisian-style lamps. The ambiance is one of serene sanctuary, ideal for beginning and ending each day.
Throughout the home, traditional artwork gives way to carefully curated contemporary pieces, while antiques and case goods feel relevant among transitional upholstery and furniture in shades of silver, citron, and pale gray.
Exuding soulful charm, classic roots, and a touch of freshness, this tailored home now meets, and exceeds, the desires of these discerning owners.

“What I appreciate about Jerad is his partnership.”
“Jimmy and I are so busy that we never have enough time for all the things we need to do. There are a million details that go into making a house special, and Jerad knows that better than anyone. What I appreciate about Jerad is his partnership—he made himself available anytime day or night to respond to our questions by phone or email, and I know we couldn’t have tackled this project without his help.”
