Designed by two architects as their home, this unique property with modern design in an urban oasis! This gated, contemporary residence sits on an oversized key lot in a prime Uptown location just off Magazine and Napoleon. Pass through the gates to the driveway and side deck, then enter this light-filled home with clean architectural lines, vaulted ceilings, and a flexible floor plan. Entertainers and home chefs will love the spacious open-concept kitchen with expansive island with quartz counters, separate coffee bar area with wine fridge and oversized pantry. Both the kitchen and dining area offer unobstructed views from the windows and sliding glass doors to the massive deck and greenery of the backyard. You'll throw memorable indoor/outdoor parties with this easy flow, especially during Mardi Gras! The key lot not only has room for dining, relaxing or playing, but also a hot tub and shed AND there's still plenty of room for a pool! The flexible areas at the front of the home offer built-ins and ample storage. These rooms can be a first floor primary suite or guest suite with independent entrance for multi-generational living or temporary visitors. Upstairs includes a generous flex space which can be a separate den, office or playroom. You will also find a second primary suite and 2 additional bedrooms and another bathroom. All of this is protected by a long lasting metal roof. This is a great opportunity to live in the "sliver by the river" in an X flood zone in a convenient and fun area just a few blocks from the dining and shopping of Magazine St as well as major grocery stores.
