Kenilworth
Where Kenilworth is, and what is there
Kenilworth is a subdivision between Highland and Perkins roads in Baton Rouge, inside city limits in East Baton Rouge Parish, ZIP 70808. Parish records show it was platted in stages: the first filing on May 14, 1968 (119 lots), and the twelfth on November 8, 1979, with Kenilworth East added in 1975. Kenilworth Parkway carries the most addresses; other streets include Chippenham, Daventry, Beckenham, Bromley, Leycester, Stoneliegh and Louray drives.
In 2004 WAFB described castle pillars at the entrance and reported that the Kenilworth Civic Association was formed in 1972. The neighborhood's Fourth of July parade reached its 54th year in 2026, running from Boone Avenue along Kenilworth Parkway and back by Bromley Drive, according to WBRZ. The middle half of parcels in the parish records run from about 0.27 to 0.36 acre. Listing records describe a 1976 four-bedroom home on a third of an acre, and homes from about 2,200 to 4,000 square feet.

Pricing
What decides a price in Kenilworth
Kenilworth was built over about a decade, so the filing, the plan and the updates since then explain most price differences between similar-looking homes.
What moves the number
- Square footage and bedroom count, compared within a tight band
- Updates since the 1970s: kitchen, baths, roof, windows, HVAC
- Corner lots and backyard depth
- Garage, workshop and outdoor living space
What to watch
- Kenilworth Crossing is a separate subdivision with a filing recorded in 2020; newer homes there can compete with yours
- Original 1970s finishes get priced against updated homes nearby
- If you list near July 4, plan showings around the parade route
- Have roof, HVAC and permit dates ready; buyers ask
The numbers
Baton Rouge and East Baton Rouge Parish, not a made-up street number
We do not publish a median price for Kenilworth. A subdivision that closes a handful of sales a year cannot produce a stable one, and one unusual sale would swing it by tens of thousands.
| Area | Median sale price | vs. last year | Days on market | Sale-to-list |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Baton Rouge (city) | $269,000 | +5.5% | 30 | 97.2% |
| East Baton Rouge Parish | $275,000 | +4.2% | 32 | 97.4% |
These numbers describe the market you are selling into. Your price comes from the closed sales inside Kenilworth that genuinely match your house, adjusted for size, condition and lot. We pull those and walk you through them address by address.
Source: ROAM MLS closed residential sales, July 1 – September 30, 2026, compared with the same period of 2025. Based on information from the ROAM MLS for the period 07/01/2026 through 09/30/2026. Updated monthly.
Tax and flood
Homestead and flood zone, before you list
Two things every Kenilworth seller should have answered before the first showing.
Homestead exemption
Homestead covers up to $75,000 of value on your primary home. The East Baton Rouge Parish Assessor puts the typical savings at about $750–$800 a year, depending on value and millage. Owners must own and occupy by December 31 of the tax year and file in person at the Main, Coursey or Central office. Once approved it does not need renewing unless the title changes, so your buyer files their own after closing.
Full filing rules by parish: our homestead exemption guide.
Flood zone
Louisiana's property disclosure asks for your flood zone and its source, any past flooding, flood insurance, elevation certificate and past flood claims.
FEMA's Flood Map Service Center shows the official zone for any address, and it is the source the Louisiana disclosure form points sellers to. Zones can differ from one street to the next, so pull yours and any elevation certificate before listing, not during the inspection period.
