About this home
CALLING ALL DESIGNERS, INVESTORS & CONTRACTORS!
A rare Mid-City opportunity just one block off the Canal Streetcar line and surrounded by some of New Orleans’ most iconic dining—Venezia, Mandina’s, Angelo Brocato’s, Café Minh, and more. See preliminary drawings in the photos section.
This townhouse-style duplex has already undergone the hardest work—full gut, structural updates, framing, and major system upgrades—and is now ready for your vision and finishing touches.
Enjoy classic New Orleans architecture with front and rear balconies plus a deep front porch. The interior has been professionally framed with treated lumber, featuring fire blocking on both sides, re-pointed and capped chimneys, new sheet metal around fireplaces, and beautifully salvaged original flooring on the 137 side. Staircases have been reinforced with steel plates and 2x6 mounts, and the foundation was fully repaired with new piers, sills, and 3/4" decking throughout.
Additional upgrades include:
A+ structural rating
3-year-old roof with new flashings, gutters, and downspouts
All new plumbing (water, gas, and sewer) – passed inspection
Washer/dryer hookups on each side
New electrical throughout
Four warrantied 1-ton HVAC units + ductwork in warehouse, ready for install
New windows already installed on the 137 side
Electric-gate wiring in place
Many irreplaceable original elements—doors, mantels, bricks, shutters, and more—have been carefully saved and are included with the sale so you can preserve the property's historic charm.
Top-tier craftsmanship everywhere you look.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to restore a Mid-City classic and bring this beauty back into commerce. The location is unbeatable—walkable, vibrant, and surrounded by everything that makes New Orleans one of the most sought-after cities to live and invest in.
Don’t miss out on this exceptional opportunity!
