BROKER OPEN HOUSE TUESDAY (2/4) from 12:00-2:00 PM! Step back in time with this breathtaking Greek Revival Center-Hall home, originally constructed in 1859. This architectural masterpiece is a true testament to the rich history & architectural heritage of Creole New Orleans. Situated in the heart of the historic Treme neighborhood, the house features a grand, wide staircase leading to an oversized covered porch with floor-to-ceiling windows, working louvered shutters, & boxed columns, all contributing to its curb appeal. The property consists of a single-family unit w/ an attached ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit), totaling 4 beds/ 4.5 baths, approx. 4,500 sq. ft. The main floor, currently the owner's unit, consists of 2 beds/ 2.5 baths. The renovation, completed in 2022, retains much of the original floor plan, honoring the home's historic integrity. This unit features many original architectural details, including 13.5' ceilings, hardwood floors sealed with Bona Craft oil (very durable), mantels, doors & transoms. Modern updates include all-new plumbing, new electrical, a reinforced foundation, a new roof (2022), recessed lighting, two very efficient Bosche central HVAC systems, an updated kitchen w/ a mix of vintage & custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, & a large pass-through window. The spacious upstairs attic ADU, approx. 1,800 sq. ft., was fully renovated in 2012. It includes 2 beds/ 2 baths & an open-concept living, dining, & kitchen area. This unit is currently rented on a month-to-month basis for $3,000 (including utilities). A driveway leads to off-street parking for 6+ cars, & a rear oversized lot holds potential for further development. The ground level affords plenty of room for storage in the 3,000 sq. ft. unfinished basement. Located on high ground (Flood Zone X) in Esplanade Ridge, near Bayou Road, & midway between the French Quarter & City Park, this home is surrounded by numerous amenities--iconic restaurants, grocery stores, entertainment venues, & Whole Foods. This home provides unmatched access to the best of New Orleans!
