Saint Bernard Area Multifamily Home for Sale

The St. Bernard Area in New Orleans is a neighborhood rich in history and community spirit, located just minutes from Downtown New Orleans and near City Park. This area, once home to the St. Bernard Projects, has transformed significantly since the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Today, it features a mix of older shotgun houses, contemporary new builds, duplexes, raised cottages, bungalows, and traditional style homes, including transitional traditional houses, stucco, contemporary cottages, and HardiPlank homes. Most residences have small, neat, fenced lawns and off-street parking, with typical homes offering three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The neighborhood is known for its close-knit community, with amenities like the St. Bernard Rec Center providing outdoor basketball courts, a pool, and play equipment for children. The Parasite DIY Skatepark, established in 2008, offers a vibrant space for skating, music, and art, featuring a large ramp, peanut pool, and rain gardens. The Anthony Bean Community Theatre adds a cultural dimension, offering stage and screen acting lessons, set design, and theater management opportunities, along with a youth theater, after-school programs, and summer camps. City Park, one of the largest urban parks in the nation, is a major attraction, spanning over 1,300 acres and home to the largest collection of mature live oaks in the world. The park includes the Louisiana Children’s Museum, New Orleans Museum of Art, walking trails, picnic areas, and a dog park. The St. Bernard Area is served by the New Orleans Public School system, with options like McDonogh 35 College Preparatory High School and St. Raymond Elementary School.
