A Jewel Box Creole Cottage Near the Mississippi!
Qualifies for 100% financing, no PMI!
Step into this lovingly restored 1840s Creole Cottage, a true jewel box of a home that effortlessly blends historic charm with modern convenience. With 710 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this petite treasure offers everything you need—and nothing you don’t.
Inside, you'll find original hardwood floors, soaring ceilings clad in vintage tongue-and-groove wood, and a dual-sided ornamental fireplace with exposed brick that anchors the living space in cozy, historic style. The bright, updated kitchen features white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a sleek butcher block–style countertop—perfect for preparing everything from morning coffee to dinner parties.
The bedroom offers generous storage and a reclaimed t-n-g wood accent wall, adding rustic texture and warmth. Additional features include central air and heat, a stacked washer/dryer, and off-street parking for one.
The fenced backyard is petite and sweet—low maintenance yet large enough to host a BBQ or enjoy an evening under the stars. Restored top-to-bottom just five years ago, this home is truly move-in ready.
Located just a stroll from the Mississippi River, and minutes from Bywater, Faubourg Marigny, and the French Quarter, this pink charmer places you right where you want to be.
Don’t miss your chance to own a slice of New Orleans history—with a splash of modern flair.
