Welcome-- come stay at our Penthouse suite without Penthouse prices...Faubourg Marigny is a lovely historical neighborhood just behind the French Quarter-has a nice European feel to it. This building is a 175 year old corner-store creole building with a HUGE wrap-around balcony. This is the upstairs 1300 sq ft private space with a view of 3 old church steeples from every corner. If this one is booked, I have another larger unit below with a beautiful courtyard for the same price(1500sf). You can rent both for large parties.

This area has all you need within walking distance--grocery 2 blks away, coffee shops w/ WIFI, restaurants, antique/thrift shops, yoga, bars. 5 blks away is a Country Club with a great restaurant and pool/hot tub you can lounge in all day (only $10-15 a day).
My home has 14' ceilings, wood floors, full kitchen with all you need, 2 baths, 2 bedrooms (one bed/bath is in the loft), washer/dryer,WIFI,cable TV,DVD,CD player,stereo. I have all new things-furniture, sheets, towels, beds, etc. This neighborhood is special; lots of people use their bicycles to get around, or walk. Luckily, we never got any flooding- we are on higher ground here.

Treat yourself--this is WAY better than a hotel!! Located 10 blocks to the French Quarter, 8 blks to Frenchman St. & 2 miles to the Convention Center. If you want to go to the Quarter, it's easy to park a few blks away from the Quarter, and walk in-the parking in there is crazy, so this works well. We are booked for Mardi Gras on upper unit. Jazzfest is open at $575 a night.

Affordable Penthouse, Amazing Balcony, Near French Quarter

Year Purchased: 2008

Why the Owner Chose New Orleans

Vacations are very important, and i love being able to accomodate people with a great home in a great location--New Orleans is a special place, and buying this property is part of my contribution to restoring a beautiful section of New Orleans. Faubourg Marigny is very artsy, and eclectic. It is walking distance to a grocery, pool, great restaurants. It has a european quality to it that I love, and has the character.

The Unique Benefits at this House

4 blks to a wonderful thrift store and cofee house (great brunch),5 blocks to The Country Club pool and restaurant to lounge at, 2 blks to a grocery, many 2nd lines cruise down the street with fun music and dancers every now and again.....only 8 blks to Frenchman St (great music and food), 10 blks to the French Quarter.

 

Owner's Map of New Orleans

I have 7 properties that are vacation rental- the others are in Austin and Wimberley TX. I am a real estate investor and Realtor, and love this business. I remodel older homes for a living--restoring beautiful old homes is very important to me, and there are many here in New Orleans.

    • My friends and I loved staying here! the neighborhood is just what we were looking for and all in all, we felt like locals rather than tourists. We would definitely rent here again!

    • What a great spot in a great neighborhood! We stayed in this beautiful, convenient condo for Jazz Fest. Just the two of us. Old college sweethearts who had not seen each other in 29 years. We truly enjoyed the space, sitting on the balcony for sunsets, walking to Flora's for coffee in the morning, walking to Feelings for dinner in the evening. What a wonderfully romantic spot to rekindle an old flame. We can't wait to go back.

    • We stayed in this property and thoroughly enjoyed its character and proximity to the Marigny, with easy access to great restaurants, bars, and excellent music. The loft is very comfortable and has all of the comforts of home in an historic building. This property is great for a group of friends who want to spend a few days enjoying the Marigny or the French Quarter.

    • Wow! I grew up in New Orleans, so I am pretty picky about all things related to my wonderful city. I have to say though, GREAT JOB! This place has a mix of old world and modern that I just loved. I could walk to anything I needed. Close the the quarter and Freanchman street; just perfect. Thank you so much, I will for sure stay there again! Kirk
