2231 Arts Street

Live in one, rent the other — or spread out and use both. This tastefully renovated arts and crafts home, rebuilt from the studs in 2016, offers a rare setup: two full kitchens, two separate HVAC systems, and two truly independent living spaces under one roof. The upper/main unit is a spacious owner's residence; the ground-floor "mother-in-law" unit is ample enough to comfortably house family, guests, or a tenant — the current owner has used it to help offset the mortgage. Just two blocks from the St Roch Greenway, minutes from Morris Jeff High School and the International School of Louisiana, and roughly twelve minutes from most of the city. Thoughtful details throughout: blown insulation, VOC-free finished pine flooring, three balconies/porches, and rain barrels with gutters for the eco-conscious. Whether you're a first-time buyer looking to offset your mortgage, a multigenerational family wanting separate space, or an investor looking for built-in flexibility, 2231 Arts St. is designed to work for you.
