Description

The architectural features in this beautiful home located on a quiet street in the Garden District are unique and simply gorgeous. This home was once the carriage house for an adjoining mansion and is lined with radius windows, allowing generous natural light throughout. A lushly landscaped brick pathway to the side takes you to the entry of the home where you will enter a foyer that opens to a large living and dining area. The living room is spectacular with original brick floors,12 foot ceilings, a built-in entertainment center with bookshelves, and it opens to the dining room--perfect for entertaining or holding functions. The spacious kitchen has Satillo tile floors, double wine refrigerators, double ovens, a Dacor six burner gas range, an ice maker, a walk-in pantry, and abundant custom cabinetry. There is a half bath and a small sitting area right off the kitchen. With four bedrooms and three and a half beautifully updated baths, this home has space in which to live fully and also find peaceful nooks to retreat. A palm-lined brick courtyard with a beautiful pool can be accessed from the kitchen or the front brick pathway. The yard has an irrigation system and a small gardening shed. There are only four homes on the block, all with off-street parking, so there is ample street parking available. Experience the joy of Mardi Gras parades on Saint Charles, just a few blocks away and all that Garden District living offers, including private security patrols. World famous restaurants are blocks away and all the fun on Magazine Street is nearby. Garden District living at its best!
