In a neighborhood celebrated for its historic architecture, art, music, camaraderie, and joie de vivre, the sunshine-colored 939-41 Piety Street began life in 1894 as a classic New Orleans storefront. Holding court at its cheerful corner location in the heart of Bywater, the original facade remains, complete with a charming wrap-around awning and a welcoming angled entrance inviting you into the owner’s unit.
Inside the main unit you’ll find 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and 600 sq ft of spacious living, dining, and entertaining areas, along with soaring 20-foot ceilings, custom lighting and fans, and vintage wainscoting for added character. The apartment next door is always easily rented, with a clever 2-bedroom layout and income to offset your monthly note. New Fortified Roof added in 2024.
This property is priced to sell (below appraisal value), offering the flexibility to spruce it up or move right in and begin savoring the neighborhood favorites, such as Pizza Delicious, Frady’s, Satsuma Cafe, Bratz Y’all, Galaxie Tacos, Evviva, Suis Generis, Saint-Germain, Markey’s, Bud Rips, Applied Arts Cafe, Saturn Bar, Markey Park, Crescent Park, the Country Club, Petite Clouet, Tigermen Den, and so much more.
