Description

This light-filled front and back double in the heart of the Historic 7th Ward is a stunning combination of heirloom charm and craftsman updates. Two spacious and private 1 bedroom / 1 bath units feature hardwood floors and 12 ft ceilings, in-unit laundry, separate meters, as well as big porches for enjoying a morning coffee. Front unit has an additional office or small bedroom. Rear unit features a covered side gallery porch with double doors that open from the living room and kitchen. Reclaimed shiplap walls and ceilings, original transoms, pocket doors and mantles add extra charm and highlight the home's historic past. A gated side driveway offers off-street parking and extends to a generous, fully fenced backyard with large storage shed, gated garden beds, and a cement patio. Plumbing, electric, and HVAC are all less than ten years old. New roof installed in 2021 along with custom built roll-down metal storm shutters for added piece of mind. Equidistant to both City Park and the French Quarter, the house is a short walk to the Fairgrounds and Bayou St. John, and right around the corner from Bayou Rd's vibrant coffee shops and restaurants. As an investment or to owner-occupy, come see why this architectural beauty is too good to miss!
