Property Description
This sublime, quintessential Creole building was first constructed about 1830 and is now known as the Alberta Kinsey Townhouse. Rarely does such an architecturally intact building, now under condominium regime, come up for sale in the French Quarter, much less in the State of Louisiana. In fact, I (Peter Patout -listing agent) know of only four pre-1830 largely intact townhouses in the French Quarter, this being one of them. This condominium occupies the entire second floor of 823 Royal Street and runs from the front full-length balcony to the rear balcony. The condo overlooks the vivacious and entertaining life of Royal Street, one of the most prestigious streets in the French Quarter and New Orleans. Total living square footage is 1,119 square feet, which does not include the front and rear balconies. This unit also contains one or two bedrooms, one bathroom, a large living/dining room, and a kitchen. The Living/Dining Room would have been called a “le Salon” when it was first built. It retains its lofty 15-foot ceiling heights, original random-width floors, beaded beams and boards ceiling, original or earlier wraparound Creole mantelpiece, and three French doors leading out onto the front balcony with wrought iron bannister. There are two additional original mantels and numerous French doors in the other rooms. Located in the very heart of the French Quarter, it is merely 1.5 blocks to Jackson Square. You can actually hear the St. Louis Cathedral bells ringing. The back balcony overlooks a beautifully landscaped courtyard and fountain, which is common space available to all 4 owners. Furthermore, the rear balcony has what is called “borrowed views”, that overlook adjacent courtyards with verdant gardens and charming buildings.
