Property Description

Timeless Uptown character meets extensive 2026 renovations in this beautifully updated Classic Victorian Cottage just steps from Audubon Park. Behind its classic façade & welcoming front porch, the home blends historic charm with major improvements, including all-new electrical & plumbing, updated sewer lines, renovated bathrooms, new kitchen appliances & finishes, new lighting, and fresh interior & exterior paint. Inside, the reimagined floor plan features a true front sitting room. A new wall separates the sitting room & first-floor bedroom, enhancing privacy and functionality. Original character remains throughout with details, including decorative fireplaces. The refreshed kitchen offers new stainless steel appliances, countertops, sink & fixtures, plus an eating bar, pantry, cabinetry and a vintage built-in. A new mudroom provides additional storage. At the rear, the light-filled den features Spanish terracotta tile floors and a bespoke wallpaper ceiling, with two sets of French doors opening to the deck & private backyard. The first-floor bedroom offers a walk-in closet & beautifully renovated en suite bath. Upstairs, the new primary suite is a showstopper—a grand, storybook retreat with vaulted ceilings, charming built-ins, wainscoting, ample storage and an abundance of space & character, plus its own beautifully renovated full bath. Outdoor living is equally inviting with a freshly painted porch & deck, new front landscaping and a newly added grass lawn area. Tucked at the rear is an approximately 310-square-foot, 1bed/1bath renovated guest house, not included in the main living area, offering wonderful flexibility. A whole-house generator serves both the main residence & guest house. With quintessential Uptown character, extensive recent improvements, a flexible guest house and lush private outdoor space, this special property offers classic New Orleans charm with the comfort & functionality of a thoughtfully updated home.
