This former barbershop in Tremé is conveniently located within walking distance to the the French Quarter with easy access to the highway. This updated unit features one bedroom with queen bed, with a full kitchen, closet, and TV. Experience an eclectic yet stylish 150+ year old house in a neighborhood known for jazz and culture.

The space
This 1870s double shotgun is only four blocks (normal city blocks) from the French Quarter and two blocks to Louis Armstrong park. It is located on what was once the largest oak alleyway in the world which was forgone when the freeway was built in the 1960s. The unit is well sealed from noise in the bedroom with very minimal noise, the front room with the pullout you can hear a bit more activity but most can be drowned by the white noise device or a sleep app for light sleepers. There is lots of parking available in the adjacent monitored bridge lot.

Guest access
Full unit. No shared amenities, fully private, includes full kitchen, bathroom, TV (with Local Channels, Netflix and Hulu), washer/dryer unit, and wifi.

Other things to note
The neighborhood is often has second line parades that can cause minor delays. These are not frequent and often pass in a matter of minutes. The best thing to do if you encounter one is to go join in the celebration for a second. After covid New Orleans like many major cities people have been transitionally stuck. This is a widespread issue beyond this city I am aware but I try to be compassionate as much as possible since these individuals are human beings. These individuals don't seem to cause any issues or crime and my neighbors and myself do keep communication with the transients in an agreement to keep our parking available and safe.

Neighborhood highlights

Treme is the musical birthplace of Jazz, Blues, and Soul. It's an area full of soul food, jazz halls, second line parades, and on a main route making it a breeze to walk or grab an über to anywhere in the city. This neighborhood has seen ups and downs in recent history and has quickly been on the rise as one one of the most up and coming neighborhoods in the city. It's been a balancing act to retain its incredible culture with improving its infrastructure and worn exterior. Most of the neighbors here are musicians or children of musicians and all have incredible stories to share if you have the time to listen. This is a social neighborhood that loves to greet each other, this is a major facets of old New Orleans culture still active today. This is one of the last bits of the real New Orleans left and fun to experience life in the neighborhood that gave us the nickname the Big Easy.

We moved to New Orleans in 2011 shortly after we got married. We love all aspects of the life in the city and involve ourselves with several organizations.
