About this home
Built in 1882 in the late Italianate-Victorian style, this gorgeous two-story Esplanade Ridge residence is a remarkable example of historic New Orleans architecture, retaining an impressive collection of original details throughout. An inviting front porch & swing provide a lovely perch for enjoying life along iconic Esplanade Avenue. Beyond the property’s iron front gate, a generous side walkway extends the length of the main residence, leading to a private brick courtyard complete w/built-in brick grill & separate rear guesthouse awaiting renovation—offering exciting possibilities for additional living or work space. Inside, a gracious hallway and staircase introduce the home’s classic double parlor, where soaring ceilings, original plaster ceiling medallions, antique chandeliers, gas-serviced fireplaces, hardwood floors, glass transoms, and original baseboards & chair moldings showcase the craftsmanship of another era. A spacious formal dining room continues the historic character with built-in cabinetry, an original ceiling medallion, antique chandelier, and gas fireplace. At the rear of the home, the kitchen features abundant built-in cabinetry and charming bead board walls. Upstairs, the primary suite faces Esplanade Avenue and enjoys private access to the front balcony overlooking the tree-lined avenue and an oval “bull’s-eye” stained-glass window incorporated into the primary bath. Throughout the second floor, hardwood flooring, tall ceilings, plaster medallions, antique light fixtures, fireplaces, glass transoms, & original hardware preserve the home’s extraordinary historic character. Rear rooms open onto a side balcony with views of the garden and private brick courtyard below. The entire interior has recently been repainted, and the hardwood floors have been refinished to a high-gloss finish, providing a refreshed backdrop for the home’s wealth of original architectural details that are rich in history, scale, and authentic New Orleans character....
