Nestled in New Orleans' historic Garden District, this stunning Victorian two-story home blends classic elegance with modern comfort, just half a block off St. Charles Avenue. Beautiful heart-of-pine floors throughout and 19-foot ceilings create an open, airy atmosphere. The first floor includes a spacious living room, dining area, modern kitchen, and a half bathroom. Upstairs are two generously sized bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom.
Easy access to the St. Charles streetcar line connects you directly to the French Quarter, downtown New Orleans, and a variety of shopping, dining, and entertainment options.
A gated path leads to a private courtyard where two 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom rental apartments are located. Each apartment includes a living room, kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and a dining area, generating $1,200 per month per unit. These spaces offer great rental potential or can be used for guest accommodations or extended family living. They can also be easily opened up to the main house to add additional living area, if one needs it. Lower tenant will be moving May, 31st and seller will leave that unit vacant, rents should be higher.
This property offers flexibility and income potential—whether you're seeking a family home with rental opportunities or a spacious residence for guests. In addition to its striking architecture, the home is located in an X flood zone, above sea level, and has never flooded, even during Hurricane Katrina. The property also features a deck and courtyard, great for relaxation or entertaining. From the comfort of your home, enjoy views of St. Charles Avenue’s Mardi Gras parades and nearby bells. With easy on-street parking and nearby parking lot rentals available, convenience is at your doorstep.
The building has three separate electric meters and one water meter, adding to its versatility. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of New Orleans history while enjoying modern living.
