Richard Hébert, REALTOR®️

Before she became the most talked-about face in Paris, a little girl named Virginie inherited a stake in this very ground. She grew up to be the woman in Sargent’s Madame X, one of the most famous portraits ever painted. She sold her share in 1887. Not long after, this Eastlake beauty rose in its place. It’s a rare 5-bay Eastlake, one of the most distinctive architectural styles the French Quarter has to offer. Custom fan-shaped wooden brackets and intricate cornice work frame the front gallery, a cast-iron balustrade wraps the porch, and the entire residence sits raised along a side-hall gallery leading directly back to the courtyard. Fourteen-foot ceilings. Four floor-to-ceiling windows pouring light into the front parlor. Chef’s kitchen designed for entertaining, Wolf range and all. Private courtyard with a heated saltwater pool and a fully detached guest house anchoring the property. Every layer of this house tells a different chapter of New Orleans. In a way, this one began in Paris. 4 beds | 3 baths | $1,600,000 Listed by Rusty Harris, Engel & Völkers New Orleans 📍 926 St. Peter St., French Quarter • • Richard W.
