FOR SALE: Second Empire Stunner For Sale C. 1866/1875

Welcome to one of the most extraordinary houses in New Orleans — the Aldrich-Genella House, built in 1866, and one of the South’s finest surviving examples of Second Empire architecture. Standing proudly on the corner of St. Charles Avenue and Bordeaux Street, this grand home captures everything we love about the Gilded Age — the mansard roofline, the soaring ceilings, the ornate archways, and the kind of craftsmanship you simply cannot find today. Right now, the exterior is about 60 percent complete, and what has already been done is breathtaking. There’s all-new cypress wood siding, Spanish cedar windows, and a slate roof on the dramatic stair tower trimmed with copper. The foundation has been completely rebuilt, and the framing and structure have been reinforced from the ground up. Every inch has been carefully mapped out for completion — waiting for the right hands to bring the vision home. Step inside, and you’ll find soaring 13-foot ceilings, marble and mahogany mantels, and a jaw-dropping 41-foot center hall crowned with intricate medallions and archway moldings. The grand staircase rises through three stories, leading to a second-floor gallery and a third-floor tower with treetop views — a true New Orleans dream. Outside, the oversized corner lot offers lush gated grounds, room for a pool, and a charming pool house, giving you space to breathe in the rhythm of St. Charles Avenue. This is more than a renovation project — it’s an opportunity to bring one of New Orleans’ architectural icons back to life. A home of history, drama, and undeniable style — waiting for its next chapter. Zillow: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/48...
