Some homes are designed to be looked at. Others are designed to be lived in. 1514 Arabella is the second kind. This is a single residence that has quietly proven itself — in everyday moments and in the ones that matter most. Though its scale and façade are often mistaken for a condo or apartment building, the home was designed and lives as one unified household, offering rare, intentional separation without functioning as a traditional multi-family property. It has held: • Brunch for 65 guests without ever feeling loud or strained • Intimate dinners for 8 • Holiday meals for 10, with multiple cooks moving easily through the kitchen — two ovens running at different temperatures and a warming drawer keeping everything on pace It offers what families actually need: • Space to gather • Space to retreat • Multiple generations living together — comfortably, independently, and without friction Whether it’s morning coffee in the front room during a rainstorm or an evening cocktail on the back porch in the trees, this house offers quiet places to land. Thoughtful details — including clear, thick plexiglass porch walls — preserve uninterrupted views of the canopy without rails or visual barriers. Behind the scenes, the work has already been done. Major systems and exterior improvements have been addressed, and a whole-home generator ensures continuity and peace of mind. This is a house designed to be lived in, not managed. The neighborhood does the same. Life here is walkable, established, and deeply Uptown. Audubon Park, the streetcar, Magazine Street restaurants, neighborhood groceries, and everyday services are all within easy reach — close enough to simplify daily life, far enough to keep it quiet. This is Uptown the way it’s meant to be — settled, connected, and deeply livable.
