Step into the timeless charm of this historic Holy Cross shotgun home, brimming with New Orleans character inside and out. Nestled just two blocks from the Mississippi River, this beautiful yet practical 2-bedroom, 1-bath home awaits her next loving owner. Fully renovated in 2016, all major systems—including HVAC, roof, electrical, plumbing, and appliances—are less than 10 years old. Exposed bargeboard walls, heart of pine floors, and 12-foot ceilings are accented by elegant crown molding, recessed lighting and plantation shutters. The open kitchen, equipped with GE appliances, makes hosting a breeze, while the bathroom showcases floor-to-ceiling tile. Two spacious bedrooms feature a custom closet and access to a laundry room for added storage. Emerge from the rear bedroom into your own lush, subtropical retreat. Sweet olive, gardenia, bottle brush, fruiting pawpaw, and native honeysuckle bloom beneath the shaded canopy of this New Orleans garden. The extra-deep lot provides plenty of space to spread out, entertain, or make your own mark—add a workshop, a pool, or even expand the home. Enjoy daily strolls along the levee at Jackson Barracks to unwind as the boats float by. Grab a drink at Old Arabi Bar, picnic at the Delery playground, or head to the nearby dog park. 10 minutes by bike along the River to Bywater, 10-15 minutes by car to the French Quarter. House is in an X flood zone and has a transferable termite contract. Alleyways are shared with great neighbors. Plenty of street parking. Agent is married to owner.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
