Ubuntu – Apache2 change localhost directory on Ubuntu 14.04

After a fresh install of Ubuntu, I am trying to change the localhost directory of Apache2 (2.4.7). As always, it's not simple at all and it doesn't work right now.

Here's what I have done so far:

$sudo apt-get install apache2

Then in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf:

<Directory />
        Options FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride None
        Require all denied
</Directory>

<Directory /usr/share>
        AllowOverride None
        Require all granted
</Directory>

<Directory /home/louisro/Documents/www>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride None
        Require all granted
</Directory>

in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf:

#DocumentRoot /var/www/html
DocumentRoot /home/louisro/Documents/www

in /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf:

#DocumentRoot /var/www/html
DocumentRoot /home/louisro/Documents/www

Then

$ sudo chmod go+r /home/louisro/Documents/www
$ sudo chown -R louisro:www-data /home/louisro/Documents/www

When I try to access localhost throught the browser, I get:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80

And the log gives:

$ cat /var/log/apache2/error.log
