2711 Ursulines Avenue
New Orleans, LA 70119

Morning coffee on a gingerbread porch under century-old oaks. Evenings in a string-lit courtyard. This is life on Ursulines Avenue, one of New Orleans' most beautiful streets, in historic Faubourg St. John. This classic 3-bay side-hall Victorian camelback offers 12-ft ceilings, original pine floors, full-length windows, transoms, and original fireplaces. A long side hall passes the formal living room and primary bedroom and opens into a spacious dining room?den. The kitchen features exposed brick, a gas range, and a Bosch dishwasher. The spa bath is a showpiece: handmade blue tile, Calacatta Corchia marble, a double vanity, and brass fixtures. A second full bath features a clawfoot tub, and a sunroom with hand-painted harlequin floors opens to the deck. Upstairs, the camelback bedroom is a private retreat with its own balcony. Across the courtyard, the renovated guest cottage has a vaulted beamed ceiling, Zellige tile, Taj Mahal quartzite, a full bath plus powder room, and a sleeping loft. It can be a guest suite, studio, or home office. New roofs are scheduled, and the home has newer mini-splits and gated off-street parking. Walk to Bayou St. John and City Park, and to the Fairgrounds for Jazz Fest.
