Property Description
Each Creole cottage features one bedroom, one and a half baths, and its own private laundry, offering comfort and convenience for residents or guests. Both homes also enjoy their own private courtyards, creating intimate outdoor retreats unique to each property. The main home offers 1,256 sq ft of living space and is equipped with a brand-new HVAC system installed in 2025.
Steeped in history and connected to the legacy of Marie Laveaux, New Orleans' legendary Voodoo Queen, this rare property presents a remarkable opportunity to own two historic Creole cottages on an expansive lot in the heart of the Marigny Triangle. Built in the mid-1800s, these homes share deep roots with the Legendre and Laveaux families, preserving an authentic piece of New Orleans' cultural heritage.
Ideally located just steps from Esplanade Avenue, the French Quarter, and Frenchmen Street, the property blends timeless architecture with exceptional walkability. The cottages have been lovingly maintained, showcasing tall ceilings, original wood floors, elegant French doors, and abundant natural light—all hallmarks of classic Creole design. Thoughtful updates throughout provide modern comfort while honoring the homes' historic integrity.
Outside, a shared sense of serenity flows through the lush courtyards, including a beautifully shaded garden anchored by a mature Holly tree. Gated off-street parking adds valuable convenience in this highly sought-after neighborhood.
Complete with the occasional horse-drawn carriage, this property embodies the enduring charm and spirit of old New Orleans.
