Property Description
Located in the New Orleans Garden District, 2915 Chestnut Street is a splendid example of the Italianate-Greek Revival architectural style that is synonymous with the historic character of the Garden District. Built in the 1860's, the house has double galleries, 14 and 12 foot ceilings downstairs and 12 foot ceilings upstairs. There are Italianate plaster medallions, moldings, and arches, and wide pine floors. The oversized doors and windows, generously proportioned rooms, and the relation of the house to its yard, are some of the features that contribute to this property's grandeur. The primary bedroom is on the 1st floor and there are 3 additional bedrooms upstairs. The 2nd floor also includes a 1 bedroom/bath apartment that has a separate entrance and is accessible from the main house. There is also a 2-story carriage house with a half bath. The relative locations of the main house, apartment and carriage house offer infinite options for expansion of the main house. The French doors of the garden room look out to the generously sized terrace and side yard. There is a fenced 3 car motor court. This property has not been on the market for 59 years and once you see it you will understand why.
