Property Description
This elegant and grand Greek Revival home, filled with lots of natural light, was the very first of the block famously known as “Frerets' Follys”, built by renowned architect William A. Freret in 1861. The beautiful cypress front door is original with beautifully preserved hardware. Renowned design artist Sherry Haydel masterfully painted the dining room and foyer ceiling highlighting the beautiful medallions. In the double parlors, she restored and painted the intricate frieze, beautifully complementing the hand-painted moldings. The stately gold-framed mirrors, placed above marble mantels, enhance the room's handsome esthetic. A bright and light solarium just off the dining room offers views of the beautiful and abundantly spacious courtyard and patio area. Nice kitchen downstairs has a walk-in pantry, tons of cabinets, stainless steel appliances a 6-burner Viking stove with griddle. 5 bedrooms (all up) and 4 bathrooms + one half bath. As an added bonus, the property includes a separate, upstairs 2 bedroom, 1 bath guest suite with its own private entrance, living room, kitchen and laundry and blends in perfectly with the main house. 2 car garage plus additional secure off-street gated parking.
