Property Description

Charming Corner-Lot Cottage in the Heart of Bywater - Fully Renovated in 2022 Welcome home to this custom 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom gem tucked on a coveted corner lot in one of New Orleans' most beloved neighborhoods. Thoughtfully renovated in 2022, this home blends French cafe charm with modern comfort - high ceilings, luxurious wood flooring, marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in wine rack set the scene for effortless entertaining. In-unit laundry adds everyday convenience, while updated electrical, HVAC, and plumbing mean major systems are already taken care of. Step outside to a large, private backyard - perfect for gardening, gatherings, or simply soaking in the Bywater breeze - plus a rare find in the neighborhood: OFF-STREET PARKING. A Ring doorbell offers added peace of mind. Location is everything, and this home delivers. You're just moments from Bywater's iconic historic architecture and colorful shotgun houses, world-class outdoor dining and wine bars, the lush greenery and river views of Crescent Park, and the beloved "Rusty Rainbow" - the neighborhood's whimsical, art-covered pedestrian bridge. Whether you're grabbing coffee, exploring local galleries, or enjoying a sunset stroll along the levee, everything that makes Bywater special is right outside your door. Some art in the home is negotiable, adding an extra layer of turnkey appeal for buyers who love the curated, artistic aesthetic already in place. With its prime corner location, custom finishes, and strong rental history, this property also shines as an income-producing opportunity - ideal for investors or owner-occupants looking to offset costs in a high-demand short-term and long-term rental market. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of Bywater charm with all the modern updates already done. Schedule your showing today! Free 1yr interest rate buydown and no lender refinance fees for qualified buyers when using Envoy Mortgage.
