This idyllic little New Orleans shotgun is a mere two blocks walking distance from Frenchman the locals Bourbon street. THE PLACE to enjoy amazing live music.
On the same block, opposite corner from you, you will find the Orange Couch. A wonderful local coffee shop filled with color and characters, not to mention a decent selection of locally sourced vegan Nosh as well as all the coffee greats you would expect from the area. You are also just a couple of blocks from a great local supermarket (Robérts). It is also a short two blocks to the river and ‘Crescent Park’, a beautiful river walk and dog park.
On the subject of local stuff, I should stress this is a neighborhood. I was impressed with how the neighbors look out for each other. It took only about a week for the mailman, walking his route, to flag me down as he saw me leaving one day because he knew he had a package for me.
Moving into the property itself it’s a shotgun. Internet was good. Two people could work (my wife and I worked remotely for a month and a half - me in the living room, her at a table in the bedroom). The kitchen is well appointed (gas stove). We never ran out of hot water and the nest thermostat worked like a champ for heating and cooling, but the vaulted ceiling’s and ceiling fans took care of most of the heavy lifting.
Nick was great as a host. Quickly responding when needed and leaving us to our own devices otherwise.
I will definitely stay here as often as possible, and would highly recommend Nick’s place to anyone seeking a little slice of New’allins locality.
