    Welcome home to this charming Mid-City shotgun, where timeless New Orleans character meets thoughtful modern updates. Warm knotty pine flooring flows throughout most of the home, complemented by rich wood doors and trim that frame the abundance of natural light streaming through the home's functional windows. Two generously sized bedrooms and a well-designed floor plan create a comfortable living space that's both inviting and practical. The single bathroom retains its historic appeal with beautifully maintained period tile flooring, classic beadboard wainscoting, an oversized clawfoot tub with shower, and an updated vanity and medicine cabinet. At the heart of the home, the kitchen offers abundant cabinet storage, sleek granite countertops, stainless steel appliances—including a gas range—and a convenient laundry closet with a full-size stacked washer and dryer. A breakfast bar provides additional seating while remaining open to the large dining room, making the space ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Step outside to enjoy multiple outdoor living spaces, beginning with the covered, shaded front porch set back comfortably from the street. The private backyard is designed for relaxing and gathering, featuring a screened-in porch, a concrete patio enclosed by a well-maintained privacy fence, a large grill, built-in benches, and young olive trees that will continue to mature. A spacious storage shed with a workbench offers excellent space for hobbies, tools, or additional storage and houses the 2022 electric heat pump water heater. This home has been meticulously maintained, with professionally serviced HVAC twice annually and a new roof installed in 2022, providing peace of mind for years to come. Perfectly situated in one of New Orleans' most sought-after neighborhoods, this Mid-City gem is just one block from the Canal Street streetcar and two blocks from the vibrant restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and neighborhood favorites along Banks Street. Enjoy the convenience of a walkable, tree-lined neighborhood with quick access to City Park, downtown, hospitals, and all that New Orleans has to offer.
