Positioned at the coveted Riverside corner of Octavia and Freret Street, just one block off Jefferson Avenue on the Uptown side, this exceptional residence captures the very essence of refined New Orleans living. Set behind an automatic driveway gate, the property unfolds as a private compound where thoughtful design, architectural character, and modern convenience converge seamlessly.

The main residence is a beautifully composed two story home offering 3 private bedrooms, 1 full and 1 half baths, and a floorplan that is both highly functional and effortlessly elegant. An incredibly talented interior designer curated every space, resulting in interiors that feel elevated, cohesive, and timeless. Rich architectural details, solid hardwood floors, and an abundance of natural light c reate a warm yet sophisticated atmosphere throughout. The home lives beautifully, balancing intimate rooms with open, inviting gathering spaces.

At the rear of the property, a detached garage structure introduces a rare and highly valuable feature: a fully independent 1 bedroom, 1 bath studio with a kitchen, perfectly suited for guest quarters, a private home office, or an income producing opportunity. Just beyond the automatic gate, a covered two vehicle carport complements the garage, offering exceptional off street parking capacity rarely found in this location.

Outdoor living is nothing short of extraordinary. A lush, professionally designed landscape surrounds a private courtyard anchored by a generously scaled entertaining deck, creating a true sanctuary for both quiet moments and vibrant gatherings. The setting is serene, intentional, and beautifully executed.

This home is further enhanced by a whole house generator and Flood Zone X with a LOW annual premium of $1,143, providing comfort and peace of mind year round.

The location is simply unmatched. At the gateway to the very best of the Freret commercial corridor, you are steps from some of the most celebrated destinations in Uptown New Orleans, including High Hat Café, Restaurant Husky, Ancora Pizzeria, Company Burger, Cure, The Franklin, and Rook Café. This is a walkable, energetic, and highly desirable neighborhood where dining, culture, and community are woven into everyday life.

Elegant, design driven, and exceptionally well located, this is a rare offering that delivers both substance and style in equal measure.
