This spacious triplex is located in historic Gentilly Terrace and retains all its original architectural details and charm. We affectionately call it “The Compound" due to all the various spaces: Main building with two units, porch and balcony plus unfinished basement; the carriage house with an apartment on the second floor and garage and laundry underneath; and a large, detached garage/workspace.
This property has lots of flexibility and would be ideal for owner occupied or investment purposes.
We are offering owner finance lending and will also consider pre-qualified buyers. Purchase price and terms will depend on which option is right for you. We are motivated to sell. Make us an offer! If this one doesn't seem to be the right fit please reach out anyway because we may have another in our curated inventory that might be just right for you.
