Description

One of the Garden District's most distinguished historic residences, this remarkable 1924 estate is a rare blend of architectural grandeur, timeless craftsmanship, and modern comfort. Rich in history and timeless elegance. Situated on three beautifully landscaped city lots, this historic treasure offers over 4, 900 square feet of living space across three stories, plus a rare cellar. Originally built as a grand duplex and thoughtfully transformed into a magnificent single-family residence, the home showcases the craftsmanship and architectural character that define a true historic estate. A dramatic winding staircase, exquisite original millwork, soaring ceilings, rich wood flooring throughout, and oversized windows fill the home with warmth and abundant natural light. Designed for gracious living and entertaining, the first floor features an impressive formal foyer, elegant living and dining rooms, a music room, inviting sunroom, screened porch, and a updated modern kitchen that blends today's conveniences with historic charm. Upstairs, the second floor offers four spacious bedrooms and three full baths, while the third floor includes an additional bedroom and full bath, providing flexibility for guests, family, or a private retreat. The rare cellar offers additional storage and endless possibilities. Outside, the property is equally impressive with its stately tile roof, concrete perimeter wall with iron fencing, mature landscaping, and commanding presence that has made it one of the neighborhood's most recognizable homes for generations. Combining historic significance with modern amenities, this remarkable residence offers large formal entertaining spaces, timeless architectural proportions, exceptional craftsmanship, and an irreplaceable location in the heart of the Garden District. Opportunities to own a home of this caliber and historical importance are exceptionally rare. This is more than a home—it's a legacy property waiting for its next steward.
