After all the French Quarter strolling, Sazerac sipping, beignet feasting and jazz club hopping, there’s nothing like catching a break from the crowds and buzzing streets. This home offers just that – a respite from the New Orleans action. It’s conveniently close to the main attractions (it’s an easy walk to Bourbon Street and Jackson Square), but far enough removed from the noise to offer a breath of relief after a stimulating day. Exposed brick walls, high ceilings, and minimalist design add to the sense of calm that this stylish, modern home provides. With two bedrooms, plus a sofa bed in the living room, it’s a great choice for groups of friends or families on a NOLA getaway. Plus, there’s a well-equipped open kitchen so you can take a break from muffuletta lunches and cook up a midday feast – and enjoy it alfresco! We love the private courtyard patio, with a garden of lively potted plants sprouting along the brick walls. After a day out on the town, come back to your serene home, fling open the patio doors, pour yourself a glass of rosé, and relax.
