2920 Powhatan St, New Orleans, LA 70126

Located in the well respected neighborhood of Indian Village within Gentilly, this creatively constructed home and workshop will inspire you! The property includes a 1940’s brick home with sleeping loft, a modified 320 square foot refrigeration container workshop, an abundance of salvaged, high-quality building materials, antiques and tools…. and everything is included in the sale! Upon entrance you will find the property refreshingly private and secluded. A double-door locking gate at the front allows vehicles to pull securely inside the compound. The home has an industrial yet elegant style all its own- exposed brick, cypress beams, rare chickenwire glass windows and Persian rugs, all wrapped by the comfort of a wood burning stove. The downstairs is equipped with a compact kitchen, half bath, and combination washer/dryer for your daily needs. The loft is a zen retreat adorned with artful glass window accents, salvaged lath walls, wooden floors, and a sunken antique tub. Closed cell blown insulation in the ceiling along with 3” foam insulation in the loft walls keeps the house very comfortable. Just outside, an outdoor shower nestled by a bamboo grove is a retreat from the ordinary. The container is made of stainless steel walls and solid aluminum flooring and has been converted into a dream studio- with windows, air conditioning, and decked out with drafting tables for your creative or professional endeavors. There is also a separate room that was used as a motorcycle garage. With this extra studio/work space, you can make the most of the minimalist residence. Other features include: a new on-demand hot water heater that runs on propane, a new Generac generator, and a tin roof that's only a few years old. Tons of treasures to discover here. Projects that enhance the property are ongoing and the property can be built to suit as well. It's time to pass the torch on this inspiring live/workspace, designed to ignite and fuel creativity!
