What's around 27 Audubon Place

About this property

Located on one of the most prestigious and historic streets in New Orleans, 27 Audubon Place offers a rare opportunity to own a remarkable architectural landmark on a grand scale. Set behind the gates of Audubon Place, an exclusive, private street manned by a 24-hour security guard, the home sits on an expansive 189 100 lot, offering both privacy and presence in one of the city's most sought-after locations. Originally constructed between 1927 and 1928 by the renowned architectural firm Weiss, Dreyfous & Seiferth, the residence is an extraordinary example of Moorish architecture blended with an eclectic Spanish Colonial Revival style. Designated as an official New Orleans landmark, the home reflects the vision of its original owners, who traveled extensively throughout Europe and returned with materials and inspiration that were thoughtfully incorporated into the design. Throughout the home, these global influences are beautifully preserved. Hand-laid Zellige tile, Islamic in influence and commonly found in Morocco, appears throughout the property, including the foyer where the tile translates to "God is Good." Portuguese tile and French architectural elements are also woven into the design. The home's fireplaces feature a distinctive iridescent glow created by copper within the glaze, while a Mashrabiya balcony overlooking the backyard reflects a design influence dating back to 11th-century North Africa. Inside, the home features 17-foot hand-painted beamed ceilings and leaded glass windows, each uniquely crafted for the room it serves. Historic details remain intact, offering a glimpse into the home's original way of life. A call button embedded in the dining room floor was once used by the lady of the house to signal for the next course of a meal, while a small alcove near the staircase was designed to discreetly conceal the home's telephone. The residence offers 7,139 square feet of living space, including five bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and one half bath. The primary suite serves as a true retreat, featuring both his-and-hers bathrooms and closets. On the ground floor, the home includes a laundry room, an additional bedroom and bath, and a flexible den or billiard room, creating comfortable living spaces for both everyday life and entertaining. The property also features a pool and pool house complete with a full bath, ideal for hosting or enjoying the spacious outdoor setting. Additional amenities include ample storage and a garage with convenient access from Freret Street. Between 2023 and 2024, the home underwent a complete and meticulous restoration by Michael Carbine, including all new electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems, carefully modernizing the property while preserving its extraordinary architectural character and historical significance. Room dimensions not available. Listing agent and seller make no guarantee on room dimensions or square footage.
