Clapboard Dream New Orleans, Louisiana

Holiday Rental Description

This clapboard home in New Orleans is cute as a button. It’s in the Lower Garden District of the city, a five-minute drive (or twenty-five-minute walk) to the buzzing French Quarter where old-world architecture is on display and the jazz bars of Bourbon Street toot long into the night. Your neighbourhood is a quiet spot to return to, where cottage-like houses stand side-by-side, but there are still bars and restaurants a-plenty, especially on St Charles Avenue.

It’s a typically New Orleans clapboard-and-porch building and, inside, you’ve got a pretty original fireplace set in exposed brickwork. The living area is a place of light, courtesy of big windows and crisp white walls. A sleek breakfast bar provides a little extra prep space in the kitchen and a spot for a mint julep before dinner. Bedrooms are quiet havens with plush beds for a sound sleep.
