About This Home
This picturesque Quarter single-family home is newer than older. It has basically been remade over a decade long renovation, yet it retains the environment and spirit of the hundred-year-old-plus home that it is. All appliances are Energy Star. There is insulation both under the house and on the third floor and attic, with a third-floor renovation completed in late 2024. There are multiple working gas fireplaces. The chimneys have been sealed above and below and mortar redone, along with a completely new roof in 2025. There are four recently installed central systems 2.5, 3, 3.5, and 4 tons, central dehumidification, and new ductwork. The water heater is tankless. The electrical system has been rewired. The many windows have been replaced to code and feature energy-saving Magnetite. The kitchen has been totally renovated and features a Viking stove. The many closets throughout the house were made and installed by Louisiana Closets. A full bar with an icemaker, a wine refrigerator, and a sink graces the long hallway between the double parlors and the half-bath. On the second floor, each bedroom features excellent closet space. A large hall closet contains the washer and dryer with folding space in between. The two bedrooms toward the back stairway and bathroom have high ceilings with beautiful and sound-proofed windows. One of the larger bedrooms toward the front has a fireplace and a bay window overlooking Royal Street leading into the Quarter. The large primary bedroom on the front of the house opens to the exterior second-floor balcony, perfect for watching the numerous French Quarter walking parades that grace Royal Street and Esplanade Avenue. The upper and lower balconies have been waterproofed. There are chandeliers in every room. The property features an electric carport gate with two car parallel parking and a gas grill connection. This house is for an owner wishing to enjoy the ambiance of the historic French Quarter and Marigny. Situated on a corner, the feeling of openness as well as accessibility is to be valued.
