5000 Laurel Street

A true original in Uptown, this striking Mid-Century Modern home stands confidently apart and in architectural contrast to the sea of Victorians surrounding it. Set on a rare double 6,000 sq ft corner lot, the property offers something almost unheard of in Uptown; generous outdoor space, multiple off street parking options, and plenty of room to expand! Inside, original parquet floors and a classic black-and-white tiled bath nod to the home’s roots, while a to-the-studs renovation brought vaulted 16-ft ceilings, updated systems, and a seamless indoor-outdoor flow to modernize where needed. With 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, this home lives far larger than its footprint thanks to smart design and extraordinary outdoor flexibility rarely found in Uptown. Fully renovated in 2016 with all new electrical, plumbing, and on-demand hot water, a new roof in 2021, and a new two-stage HVAC in 2026 this home enjoys exceptional efficiency. What truly sets this home apart: Large open great room with vaulted ceilings integrated into outdoor living Custom kitchen with a large wall unit providing ample storage as well as a hidden built-in coffee station, Bertazzonni range and a Nola Boards custom bar top Detached one-car garage with HVAC as well as an additional off-street parking area Separate 10×10 detached office (ideal for work, studio, or overflow guests) Ample space to expand, add a pool, or both Just steps from the shops, restaurants, and cafés of Magazine Street and positioned two blocks from the Mardi Gras parade route, this location offers the ultimate New Orleans lifestyle. A truly unique opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind Mid-Century home in one of the best locations Uptown has to offer.
