Charming New Orleans Uptown Home in New Orleans

Our lovely (nearly renovated from Katrina) home is a typical double shotgun built in 1894
and still
enjoys most of its original architectural elements. The house sleeps up to 8 people and is
an easy
walk to the St. Charles Avenue streetcar and all the parades. It is located one block off
trendy
Magazine Street with miles of gift, dress and antique shops, restaurants galore, and
specialty shops
like our favorite Boulangerie, Martins Wine Cellar and the Big Fisherman (seafood store.)
From our
house you can walk to most things and can take the Magazine Street bus to everything
else.
The first floor has a formal living room, dining room, amazing kitchen/sunroom, two
bedrooms each
with a queen bed , bathroom (plus), and laundry room. The sunroom overlooks the
garden and has a
wide-screen TV with cable and DVD. The adjoining gourmet kitchen is perfect for
preparing
great meals for a crowd and very easy for many to work in. The cozy second floor is one
room that
sleeps 4 in a queen and two twin beds. This space also include a sitting area and office
space
equipped with WiFi, printer/fax and cable.
Our home has a typically lush French Quarter-style garden with lots of seating, a BBQ
grill, and a
wonderful outdoor hot shower. We fell in love with outdoor showers at the beach,
bathing under the
stars. Here in New Orleans the experience is truly tropical--we love the palms, bird of
paradise
and other tropical foliage all the while listening to the wind chimes and the birds.
If you are looking for a delightful New Orleans experience, I think you will find our home
perfect.
As we have lived in New Orleans for many years, we have a wealth of local knowledge
that will help
you enjoy your stay even better.
