1511 Pauger Street

Neighborhood groceries have long been cherished gathering places woven into the cultural and social fabric of New Orleans communities, and this historic storefront, converted into a home in 1999, carries that spirit forward beautifully. Owner-occupied and lovingly maintained by the same family for 26+ years, the home has evolved with thoughtful updates, including a 2016 camelback addition creating a three-bedroom, 2.5-bath layout, with a home office and a den. Upstairs, a lovely primary suite overlooks a private, tree-top balcony spanning the width of the bedroom and oversized bath complete with a free-standing shower, soaking tub, a wall of windows, and dappled light shining in—a tranquil and relaxing retreat. Downstairs, an open living, kitchen, and dining room with two pantries, exposed wood-beam ceilings, two additional bedrooms, and a cozy den opening onto the tropical bricked courtyard offer room to host and entertain, create home-cooked meals, or simply lounge and unwind. Details abound, from custom-built-in bookshelves and clever storage to energy-conscious upgrades, including solar panels that deliver substantial monthly savings, and an EV car charging station. Additionally, a new sewer system and a new roof on the first floor contribute to reduced maintenance costs. Set in the coveted Marigny Triangle, placing the best of New Orleans' beloved cafes, live music, world-class dining, walking parades, art galleries, second lines, and extraordinary architecture at your doorstep.
