About this property

Urbania House: Private Iconic Raised Manse, Pool & Grounds in Lower Garden

Circa 1838, amazing Greek Revival Center Hall. One of the oldest surviving in the area, being brought back by noted preservationists to it's intended use as a family home. It remains a decadent working project. Beautifully unfinished yet completely intoxicating from the moment you enter with it's ethereal rooms and grounds. A true Grand Center Hall with original floors and 14' ceilings, enormous open porches and balconies. Feeling forgotten by time yet all modern conveniences at your fingertips. Completely unique, even for New Orleans. We look forward to hosting you for that special occasion visit to New Orleans, especially if you are looking to stay someplace completely different and special. A selection of coffee and tea as well as a welcome basket of artisanal cheeses, crackers and baked goods are complimentary during your stay. *Please note that we have a one week minimum during Jazz Fest, Wednesday - Wednesday.

We had the most wonderful stay! The home and gardens are literally breathtaking in beauty and at the same time we felt comfortable and cozy. Between walking to many great restaurants and just spending time together on the porches, this is a top Vrbo experience and we highly recommend!
