Timeless French Quarter living awaits in this classic Victorian Italianate cottage, originally built in the mid-1800s, and located on the widest street in the Quarter (which is most desirable)! Period details including soaring ceilings, hardwood floors, crown molding, working fireplace and pocket doors blend seamlessly with modern comforts. The 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath layout opens to a private courtyard with fountain, while a rooftop deck and outdoor shower add rare lifestyle amenities. The upstairs bedroom has 2 sets of French doors that open onto a side gallery that overlooks the courtyard. There's also a gas log fireplace, offering an inviting touch to the dining room. A quintessential piece of New Orleans architecture, this home offers both historic character and inviting outdoor spaces in the heart of the Quarter.
