Easy living, genuine character, and a blank canvas next door — just steps from Crescent Park and minutes from the French Quarter and CBD. The main dwelling offers approximately 2,000 square feet across two stories. Upstairs: 12-foot ceilings and beautiful antique heart-pine floors in the living areas and bedrooms — the kind of craftsmanship you simply can't replicate in new construction. Downstairs: a spacious recreation room, a private-entrance office (ideal for a home business or studio), laundry, and a sitting room that works as a second living area or flex space. Next door, the vacant lot is a true blank canvas — separable and ready for a second home, guest cottage, or garden. In one of New Orleans' most vibrant riverside neighborhoods, the possibilities are genuinely exciting.
