1014 Dumaine Street

Serenely tucked within a lush and glamorous French Quarter courtyard—an increasingly rare find—this enchanting residence is the very apartment once lived in by Tennessee Williams. Rich with history and character, the home has been thoughtfully refreshed with newly refinished hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and fresh paint that highlights its classic architectural lines. Tall French doors open to a beautiful gallery with iconic green ironwork overlooking famed Dumaine Street, filling the space with natural light and a true sense of place. Two decorative fireplaces anchor the main living area and the primary bedroom, while the preserved original green bathroom tile—selected during Williams’ time here—offers an authentic connection to the apartment’s literary past. The flexible floor plan provides approximately 1,100 square feet, including a generous office or creative space that may also function as a bedroom. The kitchen features granite countertops, ample cabinetry, a gas stove, and dishwasher. Step outside to enjoy the tranquil shared courtyard with a lovely swimming pool—an oasis in the heart of the Quarter. Washer and dryer, and parking is also available. A rare opportunity to live inside New Orleans history, blending timeless charm with more than everyday comfort in one of the city’s most coveted locations.
