Overview

635 St. Ferdinand sits on the edge of the Marigny and Bywater in a way that lets you have both. Award-winning restaurants, homemade parades, long walks along the river, coffee shops where the regulars know your name, friends flying through for the week, and neighbors dropping by. This Two/ Flex Three-bedroom house makes immediate sense to somebody who loves New Orleans deeply, but has learned just how important it is to protect their own peace, too. Inside, the home unfolds more like a grown-up treehouse than a traditional renovation. Light moves across original hardwood floors throughout the day. Upstairs, the primary suite opens toward river and city views, where sunsets give way to the lights of the Crescent City Connection while ships drift past in the distance. The layout wastes nothing. Open shelving lines the main living space like a private library, complete with a functional rolling ladder, while a generous rear deck and upstairs balcony tucked amongst the magnolia tops make it easy to read, sketch, garden, host, or wear out your throwing arm for the dog. A tall privacy fence keeps this part of the world your own. This is a home for someone who pines for a low-maintenance lifestyle. A generous island in the middle of all the Marigny magic. The kind of place where you can spend the day out in the city, close the door behind you at night, pour a drink, and exhale. 635 St. Ferdinand is located directly across from the Krewe du Vieux den and moments from the expanded riverfront park connecting the Bywater to the French Quarter and beyond, placing some of the best parts of New Orleans within easy reach. 635 St. Ferdinand is for the person excited by the idea that New Orleans is right outside their front door, but equally excited by the fact they can close and lock it whenever they need peace.
