924 Melpomene Street

This historic double gallery in the Lower Garden District has been thoughtfully reimagined with a warm industrial-chic aesthetic, blending historic charm with modern convenience. Complete with gated off-street parking and a separate apartment for guests or rental income, the home sits on a rare 159' deep lot just steps from Magazine Street. Fully renovated in 2014 with new roof, plumbing, electrical, windows, and four HVAC systems, the residence offers peace of mind along with timeless appeal. Inside, deliberate design choices highlight reclaimed materials, high ceilings and abundant natural light. The primary kitchen is a chef’s space and gathering hub, featuring a 48 gas range, full-size refrigerator and freezer, reclaimed wood shelving, concrete countertops, beadboard ceiling and easy access to an inviting outdoor entertaining area. The primary suite spans the front gallery with its own balcony, generous walk-in closet with laundry and en suite bath with a striking live-edge cypress vanity. A private guest suite on the main level, flexible bonus spaces great for a home office or wine room and an upstairs den with secondary kitchen/wet bar add to the home’s versatility. Each additional bedroom enjoys its own balcony, with laundry conveniently located on both floors. Outdoors, the deep lot provides a tranquil retreat with lush landscaping, a gazebo and multiple sitting areas. The property is wired for surround sound and security, ensuring comfort and ease of living. This is a rare opportunity to own a home that combines historic New Orleans architecture, modern amenities and an enviable location— all with a character that is both distinctive and welcoming.
