About this property
Historic 5 Bedroom steps to St. Charles Ave.
Welcome to The Margaux Bleu, a beautifully renovated historic estate only 264 feet to St. Charles Avenue, perfect for catching the streetcar or a front row seat to Mardi Gras! Only 10 mins to the French Quarter, you can walk to tons of restaurants, shops, with the rest of the city at your fingertips! The space is a stunning blend of historic charm with modern amenities. The spacious double parlor and 5 independent bedrooms, all with king beds, makes this space ideal for large groups!
The location is as special as the home, located on the border of uptown and downtown, with a downtown view from the private upstairs balcony. Pretty much anything in the city is a 5 to 15 minute drive away, or take the streetcar, less than one block from the property.
The house is right off the Uptown Mardi Gras parade route, where the iconic Krewes of Muses, Bacchus, Orpheus, and many others ride. History buffs don’t want to miss the WW2 museum, less than a mile away. The French Quarter, Bourbon Street, the Superdome, and the Convention Center are less than a 10 minute drive away. Tulane and Loyola universities are located about 3 miles down St. Charles, just hop on the street car and enjoy the scenic ride. With beautiful moss covered Oak trees and tons of fun activities for all ages, City Park is about 5 miles away, and The Fairgrounds, the home of Jazz Fest, is 4.5 miles away.
There are plenty of great restaurants and bars located within walking distance, others only a short streetcar or drive away. Nearby you can find Magazine and Tchoupitoulas street which are home to tons of great restaurants, shops, breweries and more. A street car ride down St. Charles can take you to Audubon park all while viewing the stunning mansion lined avenue.

About the host
Hosted by Jesse Coleman
Originally from Pennsylvania, I grew up visiting my Aunt (the owner of this home) and eventually moved to New Orleans to attend college. Upon graduating, I began working for my aunt by managing her rental properties throughout the city. She purchased this property in the early 2000's prior to hurricane Katrina, and after functioning as a long term rental with two separate units, she decided to convert the home back to its original glory, as a grand single family home. In early 2022 the interior renovations were completed and The Margaux Bleu was opened up to guests as a vacation rental.
Having fallen in love with the city at a young age, and that love only growing since moving here, it felt natural to act as the property's host and welcome guests to our amazing city. When traveling to a new city, I understand the importance of having a comfortable place to stay, as that can impact ones entire travel experience and their opinion about the city itself. I love New Orleans, and love even more to share it with all those who choose to visit.
When you stay at the Margaux Bleu, you are supporting a family business who cares deeply for its city. We provide a guidebook with tons of handpicked recommendations and would be more than happy to provide any additional input when it comes to planning your trip! We'll make sure that you're stay is as special as those you are traveling with, as we hope that The Margaux Bleu is a space that you can connect with your friends, family, and fellow travelers, and enjoy all that New Orleans has to offer!

What makes this property unique
Built in the early 1900's, this home is the epitome of historic New Orleans. In a neighborhood surrounded by tons of new construction short term rentals, none of the nearby homes can compare to the grandeur of this New Orleans gem. Having been recently updated, the design of this home seamlessly blends classic New Orleans charm with modern day amenities. For guests wanting to experience New Orleans in all its glory, by spending your nights in a home with as much character as our city itself, this home is for you! Plus, you're less than a block to St Charles Avenue where you can catch the iconic St. Charles Street car and view the stunning historic mansions that sit on the oak tree lined Avenue!
