    Overview

    Set as a Victorian shotgun double on a corner lot, this duplex blends classic New Orleans details with a practical two-unit layout. The exterior stands out for its symmetrical double front porches, intricate gingerbread millwork, and bold navy steps. Inside, high ceilings, original hardwood floors, decorative mantels, and transom windows create a bright, character-forward interior for both units.

    The property also offers a thoughtfully arranged outdoor space. Behind the home, you’ll find a yard with a stepping stone path, turf lawn, privacy fencing, and a pergola equipped with string lights, creating a ready setting for outdoor dining and relaxed lounging. This configuration supports an owner-occupant lifestyle as well as tenant-friendly day-to-day usability.

    From an investment perspective, the duplex setup is designed for strong rental potential, with the advantage of having two income-producing units in one cohesive asset. For buyers who prefer to reduce carrying costs, the layout supports an owner-occupy approach where you can live in one unit and rent the other. With its combination of original architectural elements and an outdoor area that’s already positioned for everyday use, the property offers a compelling mix of charm, flexibility, and long-term functionality.
