About This Home

520 Nashville Avenue

Shaded by majestic, centuries-old live oak trees, this remarkable Uptown residence offers a rare opportunity to own a true New Orleans compound—an inspired fusion of a circa 1869 Creole cottage and a stunning 2-story addition by architect William Sonner. Set on a beautifully landscaped double lot with gated parking, it is ideally located within walking distance to shopping, dining, and Whole Foods on Magazine Street, as well as Audubon Park. Designed for multi-generational living, the home can be easily configured into distinct, self-contained quarters while maintaining elegant flow.

Light-filled interiors include elegant double-parlors, formal dining room, and a fully appointed kitchen with custom cypress cabinets, Thermador appliances, and a walk-in pantry. The expansive great room features a soaring vaulted ceiling of reclaimed cypress, a wood burning Louis XV fireplace, and late 18th-century French terracotta floors. Just off the great room, a second kitchen/wet bar with cypress cabinetry and stainless steel appliances offers excellent entertaining capacity. French doors open to verdant gardens with multiple options for pool placement, if desired.

The home offers 3 private bedroom suites plus a 4th bedroom or study. The first-floor primary suite is a tranquil retreat with a renovated bath featuring a soaking tub and walk-in shower. Two upstairs suites include one with a large private balcony overlooking treetops. The downstairs guest bedroom/study showcases a circa 1820 fireplace mantel with a wood-burning fireplace. Additional highlights include wide-plank wood floors and ceilings, antique fireplaces, slate and copper roofs, a travertine-paved front courtyard with antique fountain, 4 independent HVAC systems, and abundant storage.

Featured in multiple publications, including Southern Living and Country French Home, this extraordinary property blends historic authenticity, architectural craftsmanship, and modern livability.
