Property Description

This late 19th-century residence located in one of New Orleans' oldest neighborhoods, has been meticulously maintained and has had only three owners in its history. It has been featured in the City Beautiful Historic Tour as the Domingues House. Built in the Queen Anne style featuring a variety of textures and ornamentation detail, the exterior is defined by large Victorian porches. Inside, a grand parlor with a fireplace leads into a formal dining room with hardwood flooring and a Murano-style crystal chandelier. While the bathrooms have been updated, they retain elegant period elements. The bedrooms are located on the second floor, accessible by two staircases. One staircase continues to a cozy third-floor loft and nook. The spacious kitchen provides ample room for both a scullery and a butler’s pantry. The outdoor space includes a saltwater swimming pool with a fountain, a courtyard with a pergola, a guest house currently used as an office, and private off-street parking. Walkable to City Park, New Orleans Museum of Art, New Orleans Fairgrounds, Bayou St. John, and a myriad of local restaurants and cafes, this home perfectly evokes a bygone era.
