Property Description
An extraordinary opportunity to own Ken Fulk's fully furnished private residence. This captivating 4,973 square foot mansion, built in 1854 embodies the effortless elegance and rarified lifestyle of a bygone era, nestled in one of the French Quarter's most discreet and charming blocks. This historic residence, recently home to billionaire Paul Allen, has been meticulously reimagined as a modern sanctuary, with interiors praised as being among "the most beautiful rooms in the world." The home offers bespoke features and amenities, including a ground-floor recording studio, ideal for private concerts, lively gatherings, or podcasting, which has hosted renowned musicians. Other unforgettable features include: a stone-white staircase from an Italian palazzi with French ironwork, gilded and hand-printed chinoiseries wallpaper salon with a 60-candle Italian chandelier, a Czainski hand-painted dining and drawing room with a hidden door, wood-grained elevator with Delafosse engravings and a secluded courtyard and a lushly planted wraparound gallery. The primary suite features upholstered, Swedish reverse, hand-printed cotton, a huge bathroom with tiles from the St. Petersburg factory used by Peter the Great, and an enormous hidden dressing room. Additionally, Ken Fulk's impeccably furnished guest home at 532 Governor Nicholls is available.
