Timeless charm with a modern floor plan! On a gorgeous block in the Esplanade Ridge neighborhood, this New Orleans double is not your typical shotgun. This side hall layout offers independent bedrooms and privacy! While you get all the character of a historic home with hardwood floors, architectural brackets, 12' ceilings, and claw foot tubs - this home also has newer windows, updated kitchens, and larger bathrooms. Ideal for an owner-occupant to move right in and have a long-term tenant help pay the mortgage! The kitchen was upgraded with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops and is spacious enough for a table or large kitchen island. Don't miss the backyard sanctuary! Surround yourself with plants while sunbathing on the deck. There is grass, too, for the pups! This is truly a great property! You can walk to Jazz Fest, bike to City Park, or take a quick drive to the French Quarter. And for those who need a coffee shop to walk to, this area is perfect, with Old Road Coffee and The Flagpole close by! You're also close to Esplanade Ave, Pagoda Cafe, Leo's Bakery, and the Degas house. Lagniappe info: X flood zone with an assumable flood policy, termite contract, and separate meters for both units.
