Property Description
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. 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 features 17-foot hand-painted beamed ceilings and leaded glass windows, each uniquely crafted for the room it serves.
The residence offers 7,072 square feet of living space, including 5 bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms The primary suite serves as a true retreat, featuring double 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.
Between 2023 and 2024, the home underwent a complete and meticulous restoration by the late Michael Carbine, including all new electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems, carefully modernizing the property while preserving its extraordinary architectural character and historical significance.
