Remarks & Misc

Remarks

Quintessential New Orleans charm meets a thoughtful 2026 renovation at 617 Eighth Street, a beautifully restored Greek Revival cottage in the heart of the Irish Channel. Originally built in the mid-1800s as a double, this home has been reimagined into a gracious single-family residence with a smarter, more livable floor plan, soaring ceilings, restored hardwood floors, transoms, oversized windows, and timeless architectural details throughout. The renovation touched nearly every major element of the home, including a rebuilt front facade to HDLC standards, repaired and restored windows, refinished floors, new closets, updated lighting, repaired siding, custom-built doors, major shoring and foundation work, and fully renovated bathrooms. The roof and HVAC systems are approximately four years old. The heart of the home is the stunning new kitchen, featuring custom Campbell's cabinetry, granite countertops, new appliances, a generous island, and a bright, natural flow into the dining space and out to the covered back porch. Large glass doors and transoms bring in beautiful light and create an easy connection to the outdoor entertaining space. The floor plan offers two spacious bedrooms, including a true primary suite, plus flexibility for a guest room, home office, or creative space. Both bathrooms have been fully redone, including marble tile in the primary bath. Outside, enjoy a picture-perfect front porch with gas lanterns, a covered rear deck, and a massive fully fenced backyard with fresh landscaping and room for a pool, garden, pets, or future entertaining dreams. Enviably located in preferred Flood Zone X, just steps from one of the best stretches of Magazine Street, 617 Eighth Street offers historic character, modern comfort, and easy access to the best of Uptown, the Garden District, and the Irish Channel. A polished renovation, a prime location, and a backyard this generous make this one a standout. Priced to sell! Opportunity knocks, open up!
