#1: St. Charles Court
This is a beautiful, gated community right across the street from the newest and one of the top elementary schools, Kingston Elementary. The still-growing neighborhood homes are build with an Acadian-Colonial Flair. The first half of the neighborhood have driveways and walkways paved with a bit of a differently style that stands out and sets St. Charles Court apart. This neighborhood boasts sidewalks, a community pool and rec area, as well as a stocked pond toward the back. Because of the amenities, relatively low HOA, its situation near the new elementary school and close proximity to water recreation, shopping, restaurants and the low crime rate Bossier is known for this is my number one pick!
#2: Legacy
Similarly to St. Charles Court, Legacy is another ever-growing location also anchored by another fantastic elementary school, Legacy Elementary. It is not a gated-community, per-se, yet has the feel of one. When you enter the large, manicured development you see an open, rolling landscape with several stocked ponds for fishing. This community continues to grow on the other side of the school and has several divisions within which correspond to the home sizes. Cattail Point, Redwood and Belle Rose. A community pool is also available in this beautiful subdivision.
#3: Golden Meadows
This is an older neighborhood which has picked up some steam with the building increase so it’s a blend of older and newer homes. A staple of the local military populace due to its close proximity to Barksdale AFB and relatively easy drive, the South Bossier area is also growing although not at the rate of North Bossier. In the Sun City elementary and Parkway High School districts, this subdivision sits off of Barksdale Blvd and is close to CenturyLink Center and easy access over the Jimmy Davis Bridge to all the shopping and restaurants that Shreveport has to offer.
#4: Cypress Bend
Another in the of the ever-growing vein of North Bossier subdivisions, this one continues to expand. This gated community is one of the most desirable locations as it’s access point is Benton road with close proximity to I-220. Again, it is also one that is in the ever-growing Benton school district which is arguably one of the most desirable of districts in all of North Louisiana!
#5: Green Acres Place
This neighborhood has been the staple of Bossier for years with a mixture of homes from the 1980’s to the 2000’s. The homes are larger, quaint and have bigger yards than most of the surrounding developments. Because it is a staple the trees are also fuller making this a very nice area visually. The homes are a bit older but there’s no shortage of owners who have been upgrading over the years. You are sure to find a beautiful home here. It is also just north of I-220 and spans the length of Airline Dr over to Benton Road giving perfect access to the newest shopping and restaurants that north Bossier has been experiencing.
#6: Plantation Trace/Estates
This subdivision is also an ever-growing area in South Bossier and it’s close proximity to Barksdale makes it an excellent choice for many military buyers with easy access to Shreveport.
#7: Tiburon
This gated community has also exploded over the past few years. The homes are of the Acadian-French style and boast great prices and just the right size lawn for most family needs. One of the main attractions of Tiburon is that it is gated, it is near I-220, and it’s just a few miles from Barksdale AFB. Not to mention the widening of Swan Lake Rd, Tiburon will continue to be high in the list of home buyers in North Bossier.
#8: Stonebridge
This isn’t just a gated community it is a guarded / gated community that boasts a golf course, private tennis and swimming and a country club just north off I-220 off Swan Lake Rd. Bordering Tiburon, this is the premier and safest location to live although it does come with a higher price-point. But if these are the amenities you are looking for with quick access to all the shopping, restaurants and great schools North Bossier has to offer then this could be the place for you!
#9: Autumn Creek
This “tucked away” neighborhood is little known and little seen as it is nestled between Airline Drive and Benton Rd with access points to both roads but you have to know about it! These boast some of the biggest yards and homes in the area with many that rival those of Stonebridge, minus the amenities. It is not a gated neighborhood but the gorgeous, relatively newer homes and lush landscape make it worth your while to look into.
#10: Lakewood
This is also a “hidden” subdivision which keeps it off the radar of most which is what most homeowners like for safety reasons. Boasting large homes and VERY large yards, Lakewood is the perfect combination of space, luxury and quality. With part of the neighborhood from the 1990’s and part being the 2010’s you are sure to find something you like here. Although it is tucked away it has access points out to Airline Drive and Swan Lake Rd. It is a few miles north of I-220 and allows for easy transportation to all the shopping and restaurants north Bossier has to offer!
