Vibrant, homey one bedroom shotgun in the Bywater/Marigny Neighborhood in New Orleans in the middle of music, restaurants and cafes. It is walking distance to the French Quarter and Crescent City Park. A friendly and welcoming neighbourhood.
The space
One bed shotgun apartment with a large backyard. The house is a double shotgun with a large living room, office space (with beanbag mattress available for 3rd person), large double bedroom, fully stocked kitchen, washer and dryer in house. The house is an older home so it is a bit quirky; and definitely feels lived in but we hope you will enjoy it like we do!
Backyard has raised bed, you are welcome to have any of the veggies or herbs that we are growing and also outdoor patio furniture where you can enjoy breakfast.
Guest access
The front or side entrance.
Notes
We share our backyard with our very friendly next door neighbors so if you are lucky you may get to experience their crawfish boils and summer bbqs!
