Property Description

Fully Renovated Corner Store Building, New Orleans. Rare opportunity to own a completely renovated 1925 corner-store building just off South Claiborne and Carrollton Avenue near Leonidas Street. This approximately 1,983-square-foot structure sits on a corner lot with a huge backyard, and the rear of the building features roll-up garage door access (10 x 11.5) — ideal for deliveries, storage, or workshop use. The lot measures approximately 5,325 square feet, or 0.12 acres, and is a distinctive key-shaped parcel that wraps around the corner, giving the property more usable yard space than a standard rectangular lot of the same size. The fenced backyard is planted with fruit and olive trees, adding a rare touch of greenery and shade to an urban lot. Inside, you'll find two half baths and a small office, alongside the open storefront layout that defined this corridor a century ago. The property is zoned HU-B1 , the Historic Urban Neighborhood Business District — the same designation that covers the neighboring corner commercial properties along Apple Street. That zoning permits retail, restaurant, office, and residential uses, including single-family and two-family dwellings, making it well suited for continued commercial operation or a mixed-use conversion. The neighborhood is seeing steady investment, with easy access to the Carrollton streetcar and I-10. Large roll up door in the rear. Previous tenant use the space for furniture building. Agent is partial owner.
