There's another side to the French Quarter, where the streets are residential, the pace is a little slower, and the living is good. That's where you'll find this wonderfully unexpected third-floor apartment, tucked into an 1850’s building with just four residences. The renovation respects the building's 175-year history without asking you to live in the past. Exposed beams follow the angles of the roof, old brick walls frame contemporary spaces, and original wood floors bring warmth throughout. The kitchen is surprisingly well-appointed, with quartz countertops, stainless appliances, and a breakfast bar. The bathroom has been stylishly updated with thoughtful details throughout. The open living and sleeping space makes clever use of every angle, with a fireplace, built-in window seating, and architectural details you simply won't find in a conventional apartment. Yes, there are stairs – It's the third floor of a historic French Quarter building, after all. But at the top is a private little retreat, just a short walk from everything that makes living in the Quarter unlike anywhere else. TERMS: Offered unfurnished at the listed rental rate, or furnished for an additional monthly fee. No short-term rentals. 12+ month lease preferred. Good credit required.
