Remarks & Misc

Remarks

Once in a century opportunity! - Luxury, History and a Flexible Floorplan for use as a single-family or multifamily property. Embodying the romantic grandeur of historic New Orleans, this 1883 Italianate masterpiece commands a prominent corner lot along tree-lined Esplanade Avenue. A beloved centerpiece of the Esplanade corridor, this 7,700-square-foot estate built for French merchant Pierre Lanoux offers a rare combination of museum-grade historic detail, grand-scale privacy, and flexible income potential. Secured behind soaring perimeter fencing and bespoke double iron-and-brass gates, the home opens into a breathtaking mahogany-lined entry and marble-floored foyer, capped by a 19th-century French Empire chandelier. Inside, the property's architectural integrity is unmatched: soaring ceilings, deep upper and lower galleries, and original 1800s millwork that has been impeccably preserved in its unpainted, natural state. Designed for high-end living and world-class entertaining, the expansive floor plan features grand double parlors and generous light-filled spaces tailored for displaying fine art collections. Maintain the current layout as a 5-unit property--featuring a grand owner's residence on the right and 4 income-producing units on the left--or seamlessly transition the entire space back into a single-family estate. Adding to the property's investment value, an octagonal wing provides a private, self-contained suite--with great options for a steady long-term rental, luxury guest house, or live/work space. Whether sought as a trophy private residence or a high-value generational investment, this estate represents a landmark opportunity on the Esplanade Ridge. Preapproval or Proof of Funds Necessary for all viewings of the home. Renter's units require advance notice to view.
