1620 GENTILLY Boulevard

Across the street from the New Orleans Fairgrounds -- home of Jazz Fest -- This 1920's Craftsman double works as hard as this city plays. Renovations are wrapping up from top to bottom in 2026, the main residence delivers 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths, with a glass-enclosed bonus room off the primary suite that's currently set up as a private office -- an architectural detail that earns its square footage. The kitchen is fitted with custom cabinetry throughout, and the new primary bath and shower were built to finish-level expectations.

The outdoors is a genuine extension of the living space: a deck surrounded by palms, and a purpose-built expanded outdoor storage area that keeps the main spaces clean. A custom iron gate -- fabricated by local ironworker Rion Byrd -- secures gated, off-street parking for one car off Gentilly. The side-entry rental unit adds a 1-bedroom, 1-bath income stream that runs independently from the main home, with verified annual rental income of $36,000.

This is a central New Orleans address that puts you walking distance to the Fairgrounds and minutes to Bayou St. John, Mid-City, and the Treme. Whether you're owner-occupying with rental income or adding a well-located, move-in-ready asset to a portfolio -- this one is ready to go.
