Strolling the Streets of Uptown {Octavia Street}


Who else saw this charming cottage in the latest issue of Southern Living? I swooned.

I love this house and pass it daily on my Uptown walks.

I even have toured the inside on one of the Preservation Resource Center’s Shotgun Home tours. It is jaw-droppingly breathtaking.
I stopped by the other day to snap a few more photos of the manicured front lawn and front facade. No! I am not a stalker walker, but I do love to look (and dream).

The streets of Uptown are filled with charming homes in many styles, but I am always drawn to the charming cottages and shotguns.

  2. You don't have to be envious of those other homes in your district. Yours is beautiful too. I actually thought of you when I saw the home in SL.

  4. I love seeing all the beautiful homes around where you live. New Orleans is such a beautiful city with it's old architecture. Love that house with it's manicured gardens too.

  6. Good afternoon, Ron! I was so excited when I saw the article in Southern Living, and I definitely thought of you--you "stalker-walker"! ;) Uptown and the Garden District have so many quaint and beautiful cottages and shotguns. Keep posting pics of those cottages and shotguns on your daily walks. Have a great day! xoxo
