Nestled in the heart of Mid-City, this charming New Orleans shotgun home is filled with character, abundant natural light, and is situated on two separately recorded lots being offered together as one package. The adjoining lot has been thoughtfully transformed into a beautiful garden oasis featuring fruit trees, herbs, and lush landscaping, creating a private outdoor retreat while also offering future development potential.
Inside, soaring ceilings, beautiful wood floors, abundant natural light, and separate living and dining rooms showcase the home's timeless character. The spacious kitchen offers plenty of storage and workspace, while the thoughtfully designed floor plan allows access to the second bedroom without walking through the first, providing added privacy and functionality. Enjoy your morning coffee from the inviting front porch, unwind in the sun-filled rear sitting room, or entertain family and friends on the brick patio overlooking the gardens.
Recent improvements include new Hardie Plank siding, updated foundation work, a new tankless water heater, and upgraded rear stairs. Whether you're searching for a home full of historic New Orleans charm or a unique property offering exceptional outdoor space and long-term flexibility, this one-of-a-kind Mid-City property is truly something special.
