200 year old family friendly townhouse just steps from the St. Charles street car line and main Mardi Gras parade route! Enjoy a beautiful ride to the French Quarter, WWII museum, Mississippi River, casino, convention center, Audubon Zoo, Aquarium, City Park and so much more! This beauty is located within walking distance of acclaimed restaurants such as Commander’s Palace and Mr. John’s Steakhouse as well as cemeteries. Magazine St. is also within walking distance for shopping and restaurants.
As of the end of May 2025, there is some construction going on in the neighborhood. There is a new building going up about a block away, and the city is also making road repairs, including repaving in front of the home and on the surrounding blocks. There may be construction noise heard inside the house during working hours. Please reach out to us with any questions.
***PLEASE NOTE*** this is a 3 story townhome. There are 3 steps to enter the home and the main bedroom and bath are on the 2nd floor (18 steps). The 2nd bedroom is another 18 stairs. There is a half bath on the 1st floor. While we welcome children and provide a stroller, high chair, and pack and play, the house is by no means baby proof in that there are no outlet covers or baby gates, etc. on the premises. You will have access to a well appointed kitchen including a Keurig with complimentary coffee, tea, sugars, creamer and basic spices.
You will have access to the entire townhouse aside from a maid’s closet on the 2nd floor and the owner’s closet (2 doors) on the 3rd floor
I will be available 24/7 via text or phone call for any issues that should arise.
You will be staying one block from St. Charles Ave. There is a streetcar stop which can take you almost anywhere in the city including the French Quarter, WWII museum, zoo, aquarium, river, casino, cemeteries, and so much more! There are many restaurants and shopping within walking distance including Magazine St. St. Charles Ave. is also the main Mardi Gras parade route
There is free on street parking should you choose to bring a car. You do not need a car as you can get to almost anywhere in the city via streetcar, and Uber is very readily available should you choose this route.
This house has original windows and is very close to the street. You do experience higher levels of noise at times from the main bedroom. While we spray monthly for bugs/pests it is not uncommon for the occasional palmetto bug or lizard to find its way inside (both very common in the south). This will not result in a refund should one find their way in during your visit. Also being 200 years old this home can sometimes be “crumbly”. Despite frequent and thorough cleaning there will sometimes be mortar/brick dust under windows, on baseboards, and inside of the fireplaces. There is also a Ring doorbell with camera for the safety of our guests and our property.
**There is a $200 security/damage deposit collected 3 days prior to arrival, and returned shortly after your stay. This is done as a $200 hold on your method of payment, not a full charge. Please see the rental agreement (required to be read and signed before booking) for more details. ***
