Description

Rare opportunity for a DOUBLE LOT (100ft x 119ft or 0.23 acres) in the Gentilly Terrace National Register Historic District, celebrated for its exceptional collection of early-20th-century Craftsman architecture. Built in 1912 and meticulously maintained, this 1,286-square-foot Arts and Crafts home blends historic character with thoughtful improvements. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath interior features original plaster ceilings, a built-in china cabinet, updated kitchen cabinetry and countertops, newer flooring, custom shades, replaced windows, and a walk-in attic.

Major improvements include a replacement HVAC system in 2021, plus a roof, windows, custom shades, and natural-gas whole-home generator installed in 2022. Generous screened-in porch space overlooks a fenced and landscaped double lot—a rare find—with garden lighting, irrigation, and abundant private green space. Three detached accessory buildings offer exceptional flexibility: a dedicated laundry building, a multipurpose space currently used as a gym, and a separate lawn and storage building.

Enjoy the best of both worlds: the convenience of a central New Orleans location paired with the breathing room of a double lot. Slow down and enjoy the gardens in a peaceful, Cajun-country-inspired setting right in the heart of the city. Situated on a raised lot, the home is reported by the seller to have no history of flooding, including during Hurricane Katrina. Should the power go out, the 2022 natural-gas whole-home generator stands ready to provide dependable backup power, added comfort, and reassurance.
