About this home
Beautifully renovated Algiers Point gem with commercial short-term rental permits already in place. A rare turnkey investment opportunity with no homestead requirement to operate!
Originally rich with historic New Orleans character and thoughtfully reimagined in 2022, this stunning 5-bedroom, 2-bath residence seamlessly blends timeless architecture with elevated modern finishes in one of the city’s most beloved & walkable neighborhoods. Nestled just blocks from the Mississippi River levee, charming neighborhood cafés, local pubs, & the ferry to the French Quarter, the location offers an authentic New Orleans lifestyle with unmatched convenience and charm.
Inside, soaring ceilings and gleaming hardwood floors create an airy, inviting atmosphere throughout no carpet! The spacious floor plan is perfectly suited for entertaining, large gatherings, or maximizing short-term rental potential. Designer lighting, stone and granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and beautifully updated interiors provide a polished, move-in-ready feel while still honoring the home’s historic soul.
Significant system upgrades offer peace of mind, including HVAC systems and water heater approximately three years old. The raised foundation, fenced backyard, and welcoming covered front porch further enhance both functionality & curb appeal. Even better, the property is located in an area where flood insurance is not required.
One of the most valuable features of this property is its already-secured commercial Airbnb permits — an increasingly rare asset in New Orleans and a major advantage for investors seeking immediate income potential without the lengthy permitting process.
Whether envisioned as a luxury primary residence, stylish second home, or high-performing short-term rental, this home delivers the perfect combination of historic elegance, modern comfort, unbeatable walkability, and exceptional income-producing potential in the heart of iconic Algiers Point....
