After more than two and a half years on the market, Paula Pennington de la Bretonne’s estate at 11001 Highland Road has sold for $6 million.
In a deal that closed Friday, Dr. Andre Bruni and his wife, Dr. Jessica Bruni—who together own Sensible Dental Family Dentistry—acquired the property, which sits on 12.5 rolling acres in one of Baton Rouge’s most desirable locations. The property includes a five-bedroom main house with a home theater and a gym, a three-bedroom guest house, several smaller buildings, a saltwater pool and a man-made lake. Jo Landreneau, an agent with C.J. Brown, represented the buyers.
Though the deal marks the highest priced residential sale ever in the local market, the sale price is just one third of the $18 million the home was listed for when it went on the market in October 2012. The asking price was later reduced to $12 million.
