Just a few short blocks from the French Quarter, we discovered an abandoned antebellum Creole Cottage, left in total ruin, on the verge of collapse. It was love at first sight. We spent two years meticulously reimagining and rebuilding the home. The design respects the cottage's architectural history, both in scale and materials, while introducing a modern, minimal aesthetic with an appreciation for the patina that time brings. We came to New Orleans on vacation and never left. Perhaps you will, too. ••• (We are licensed by the City of New Orleans: Permit #23-XSTR-11265) Maison Blanche is right in the middle of everything: • 6 short blocks from the French Quarter • 2 blocks from Frenchmen Street, a grocery store & a bike rental stand • 3 blocks to the streetcar • 7 blocks from the Bywater Right next to the Quarter, is the thriving Faubourg Marigny neighborhood, a live-music destination with a pocket subculture unto itself. Over the past decade, the Marigny has emerged as one of the vital centers of the city. The Marigny hosts some of the best bars and nightspots in New Orleans, along Frenchmen Street, the neighborhood's main drag. Just downriver is the Bywater, a birthing ground for some of the most inventive new restaurants in New Orleans. We are also on the parade route for P'Tit Rex (shoe box floats) and just 2 blocks from many of the city's most eccentric parades: Krewe du Vieux, Delusion, Chewbacchus, and Saint Anne Parades* *parade routes sometimes change. ••• FEATURES: • diy breakfast provided in your own private home • 3 bedrooms/2 bathrooms • Private courtyard garden with seating area • Central heat & air with hepa filtration • Fully equipped kitchen • Claw foot tubs & Oversized rain spa showers • High Speed Wireless Internet • 46” HDTV with Amazon Fire and Free Netflix • iPhone stereos/charger in master bedroom • Plug-in iPhone speakers in main living area • Vintage mid-century furniture by Milo Baughman, Eames for Herman Miller & Hardoy • Hand-troweled cement floors • Original & commissioned art by local artists
