Tucked behind a lush garden entrance, this New Orleans Creole Townhouse style home in the Irish Channel captures the character and charm that make New Orleans so special. Rustic wood floors, soaring ceilings, exposed brick fireplaces, and built-in bookshelves create a warm, inviting space filled with personality. Thoughtful updates over the years include wiring and plumbing (approximately 10 years old), a 2022 HVAC system, Hardie Board siding, a 40-year architectural shingle roof, a rebuilt front balcony, and exterior shutters. Offering approximately 1,700 square feet, the first floor features comfortable living and dining rooms, a powder room, office, and kitchen. Upstairs you'll find three true bedrooms each with their own style and lot's of natural light! Step outside and you're just one block from Magazine Street, where neighborhood restaurants, cafés, boutiques, and galleries are all within easy reach. The Irish Channel is one of New Orleans' most treasured historic neighborhoods, known for its architecture, welcoming community, and walkable streets. If you've been waiting for a home with authentic New Orleans character, this is one you won't want to miss.
Irish Channel, located between the Mississippi River and St. Charles Avenue, is a historic and residential New Orleans neighborhood with shotgun cottages and corner-bar culture. Magazine Street concentrates the neighborhood’s character, where galleries, wine bars, and small restaurants line the blocks near Washington Avenue. Parasol’s anchors the old-school barroom tradition, while Tracey’s keeps the patio-and-po’boy ritual in motion. The Garden District Book Shop adds a literary counterpoint to the nightlife. Sidewalks thread past tidy porches and pocket gardens toward the riverfront’s working-waterway views. The pace feels local and walkable, with architecture doing most of the talking.
