Spring Home Tour Preview: 623–621 Kerlerec Street

Step inside a stunning piece of Marigny history during the 49th Annual Faubourg Marigny Home & Garden Tour on Sunday, May 18, 2025, from Noon to 4:00 PM in the Marigny Triangle.

623–621 Kerlerec Street

One of the featured homes on this year’s tour is the beautifully restored two-story double shotgun at 623–621 Kerlerec Street. Originally built in the late 19th century, the home endured a major transformation following a fire in 1936. It was clad in aluminum siding and subdivided into six small apartments before sitting vacant and neglected for over 50 years.

Homeowners Reignite Historic Charm

In 2022, a new chapter began. The current owners embarked on a full structural and historic restoration—bringing the home back to life and honoring its architectural legacy. The renovation restored many of its original features, including:

  • Historic drop siding
  • Italianate brackets
  • Custom 6-over-6 windows
  • Original transoms, doors and staircase
  • Heart pine floors
  • Greek Revival-style casings, fireplaces and mantles
Modern upgrades were also thoughtfully integrated, including brand-new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and security systems.
