Surrounded by the architectural grandeur and pulsating energy of a highly coveted New Orleans neighborhood, this property stands as a testament to the city's vibrant culture. Here in the Marigny, world-class dining, lively music scenes, and colorful street life are not just amenities—they are the fabric of everyday life. Moreover, its prime location in the preferred flood zone X, mere steps from the French Quarter, positions it as a rare find in the city's real estate market.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
