Come for the gorgeous courtyard, stay for the clawfoot tub
During New Orleans’s own “belle epoch” in the 19th century, the city saw one of its most prosperous decades in the 1830s, largely because of the city’s massive market of enslaved people and the booming cotton and sugar trades.
Built within a row of Creole townhomes constructed near the end of that decade, a circa 1830s two-story home in the French Quarter has entered the market at $1.2 million. Possibly constructed by French-born architect Claude Gurlie, who built the neighboring homes and owned property throughout the Quarter, the two-bedroom home on Gov. Nicholls Street was built in 1836.
The carriageway and former service entrance lead to a newly renovated kitchen and two living areas, one of which is a library-esque sitting room anchored by a detailed brick fireplace. Upstairs, the roomy master bathroom features a clawfoot tub, and the master suite opens to a balcony that offers a stunning Quarter view. A second bedroom with attached bathroom looks above the brick-lined backyard patio, and the entire home was recently outfitted with new plumbing and electrical.
The home, which landed on the market less than a week ago, is listed by Mat S. Berenson of Latter & Blum.
