Steps from Esplanade Ave and the French Quarter, this 1899 Creole home feels tucked away but central to everything in the Marigny triangle and beyond. Modern comforts and historic charm blend together as you walk inside to cool air and 13-foot ceilings. Working pocket doors divide the living and dining rooms, bright with updated fixtures, library shelves, and two workable fireplaces. A light-filled stairwell takes you into a kitchen designed for hosting or upstairs to the sleeping quarters. Renovated in 2006, the second floor landing separates an expansive primary suite with large closets and a private wing for guests. Your balcony and front porch swing offer two vantage points to watch the city as it revels or rouses itself awake. Orange trees and native grapes grow alongside walls of jasmine in the courtyard — an idyllic garden for backyard birding, dinner parties, and evening cocktails. Frog song fills the air at night, while music from second lines or calliope float in from the Mississippi most afternoons. Share the space with just three other units and a long history of New Orleanians who’ve called this place their home.
