This historic home is located in the Marigny, a lively and vibrant area of New Orleans adjacent to the city's famed French Quarter. Established in 1806, the Marigny features stunning turn-of-the-century architecture; quaint, flower-filled porches; and eclectic, funky charm along tree-lined streets. The artsy area's unique shops, restaurants and watering holes draw people from all over the world, and its distinct character make it one of New Orleans' most coveted neighborhoods. You're just a short walk to the sights and sounds of Frenchmen Street, where you can hear local musicians nightly - everything from Jazz to brass bands to that special brand of New Orleans funk. The French Market just beyond is a smorgasbord for the senses, featuring abundant fresh local food, artwork and souvenirs. Finally, there is Crescent Park - a scenic place to stroll along the Mississippi River and take in the magnificent view. Want to head Uptown? The streetcar awaits just a couple of blocks away. You'll come home to a classic Creole shotgun double that features 14-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, and a huge clawfoot tub with a shower. The large entry or "sitting room" has pocket doors for privacy and is followed by a living room, bedroom, kitchen and bath. It is comfortably furnished with antique pieces and can easily accommodate an overnight guest.
