About this home
Own a piece of history on iconic St. Charles Avenue. Exterior now 60% complete. Remaining exterior elements have been mapped out for completion, with an available plan in place.
Built in 1866, the Aldrich Genella House is an architectural gem. Originally a Greek Revival double gallery, the home was modified in 1878 with a third floor mansard roof and staircase tower. It is now considered one of finest residential examples of Second Empire style architecture in the South. Nestled on an oversized corner lot on St. Charles Avenue and Bourdeaux Street, with 127 feet of frontage, the gated grounds feature parking for several cars, a pool, and 200 square foot pool house. The foundation, roof and much of the exterior have been meticulously restored, including hand-crafted millwork featuring cypress & Spanish cedar. The interior, with an open/ modern floor plan, offers a blank slate for your own luxury finishes. Featuring: A jaw dropping 41ft. center hall entry, with exquisite archway moldings & medallions, a one-of-a-kind staircase, 3 flexible living areas, marble & mahogany mantels & soaring 13ft ceilings throughout. The Second floor features the primary suite, 3 additional bedrooms, a large front gallery, & a flat roof outdoor patio. The third floor is wood-cladded, with space for a den, guest room/ office plus 4th bathroom. The tower presents a very special observation room, with treetop views. A truly unique opportunity awaits you.
Note: This is a renovation project.
