Just one block from Audubon Park, this gracious traditional home offers timeless character, inviting spaces, and a wonderful blend of formal and casual living. From the welcoming iron gate at the front to the electric gate at the rear, the property provides both charm and convenience.
Inside, abundant natural light fills the home, with floor-to-ceiling windows in many areas creating a bright and comfortable atmosphere. The updated kitchen complements the home's traditional character, while formal living and dining spaces are balanced by a comfortable den and a separate study, currently enjoyed by the owners as a kids' den.
The second floor features four bedrooms and three full baths, offering plenty of space for family and guests. The third floor includes a private office along with access to walk-in attic storage, providing flexibility for work, hobbies, or future use.
Out back, the shaded rear patio creates a peaceful setting for gathering and relaxing. The remaining portion of the yard is open and currently features a basketball goal, while also serving as convenient off-street parking. An electric gate provides access from the side street.
A special home in an exceptional location, offering character, space, natural light, and the opportunity to become part of its storied history—just steps from one of New Orleans' most treasured parks.
