1100 City Park Avenue

Some Houses Have A History. This One Has A Cast Of Characters. A Business Tycoon. An Heiress. A Bachelor. Eleven Children Under One Roof. Perhaps Even A Silent-film Star. And Somewhere Among The 120 Years Of Stories, A Hidden Speakeasy. (yes, Really. You'll Have To Come See.) Welcome To Roxy On The Park. Built In 1905, This Extraordinary Residence Occupies A Substantial Parcel Directly Across From New Orleans City Park—1,300 Acres Of Live Oaks, Lagoons, Gardens, Museums, And Unexpected Adventures. More Than 50% Larger Than Central Park, And Practically Your Front Yard. Café Du Monde Is Across The Avenue, Ralph's On The Park Is Just Down The Street, And Oak-canopied Allard Boulevard Offers A Glimpse Of A New Orleans Many Visitors Never Discover. Behind Roxy's Grand Façade Lies A House That Has Never Been Particularly Interested In Being Ordinary. Soaring Reception Spaces, Stained Glass, A Magnificent Veranda, A Sunroom Overlooking The Oaks, And Rooms That Seem To Reveal Themselves One After Another. Art Deco Bathrooms Retain Their Period Tilework. The Kitchen Tells A Distinctly Midcentury Story. And The House's Remarkable Scale Offers Something Increasingly Difficult To Find: Room For Generations, Gatherings, Collections, Creativity, And Whatever Comes Next. Roxy Is Move-in Ready, With Significant Investment Already Made In The Less Glamorous But Essential Work Of Caring For A Historic Home, Including Mechanical Systems. A Detailed Buyer Confidence Report, Incorporating Inspection History, Recent Pre-listing Inspection Findings, And Documented Improvements, Is Available Upon Request. Ask Us For The Rest Of Roxy's Story. Better Yet, Come See What The Next Chapter Might Hold. .
