About this home
This grand and unique property really stands out amongst the crowd with a total of 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, including a detached guest house in the back! Beautiful hardwood floors shine throughout the main house, consisting of almost 3000 sq ft of living area, thoughtfully designed with a seamless flow from room to room allowing many different configurations depending on what works best for you. Upstairs there is a bonus bright, open loft space which lends itself to a wide range of options. In addition, every room boasts huge closets and storage spaces!
The home retains all the historic early Greek revival charm, whilst having a series of thoughtfully modern touches – secret bookshelf door through to the first room and built-in water filtration faucet. The bright, open-style kitchen/dining area showcases custom cabinetry for a streamlined and contemporary look, with a chef grade oven and gas stove and other appliances only two years old.
Outside you’ll find the expansive courtyard/entertaining area filled with a mature fig tree and tropical plans for a private oasis, shaded by a huge live oak which was recently evaluated and trimmed. Leading down the side of the house is an impressive driveway providing off street parking for 4+ vehicles. The detached guest house off the courtyard includes open studio living/sleeping space with its own private bathroom and new mini split HVAC system.
Come and enjoy all the perks of living in Algiers Point – the ‘easy’ side of the Big Easy - with all the new bars and restaurants popping up (Barracuda, Plume, Little House Wine bar, Nighthawk Napoletana, and Congregation Coffee just to name a few!), excellent nearby school options, local libraries, and a thriving community including a well maintained public pool and splash pad- must have for the summer! You will be minutes from the beautiful levee path for bike rides, running along the river, and taking the ferry to the French Quarter....
