I was a longer term renter (7 months) so I had the opportunity to experience different seasons, holidays, weather events...This beautiful bubble is not duplicated anywhere else in the Quarter. First off, the home is almost exactly 200 years old and the on-site owner has a full grasp of the history of the place. From the charming gallery upon walk in to the lush, large courtyard in the rear, this jewel is one block from the action while not hearing anything until you leave the front door. This is a historic 2 bedroom, one bath shotgun with a fully appointed kitchen and high end beds; if you are looking for a cookie-cutter Hilton with maid advice and a heated pool, this isn’t it. If you actually want to live like a local in a high-ceilinged beauty with clean and comfy furnishings, cable, and internet, this is where you want to be. And you cannot beat the price. Seriously. Large rooms with wood floors, washer and dryer, lots of light and well insulated. I look forward to coming back! Great energy, a hawk in the oak tree out back, and an occasional possum visitor if you play jazz or blues music.
