Description

Exceptional investment and commercial opportunity in the heart of historic Old Gretna! Located on highly visible Lafayette Street and zoned C-1 Neighborhood Commercial, this versatile property is positioned within one of the area's most walkable and bike-friendly districts, surrounded by local shops, cafés, restaurants, and community events. Currently configured as a shotgun-style double, each unit has the flexibility to function as commercial space or residential with each side featuring a full bathroom, full kitchen, laundry room, and multiple exterior access points. Separate utilities, central HVAC systems, soaring ceilings, and abundant natural light provide flexibility for a variety of potential uses. A spacious rear parking lot with direct Lafayette Street access offers ample off-street parking—an uncommon amenity in this historic area. The C-1 Neighborhood Commercial designation is intended to support retail goods and select services that serve the surrounding community. The district encourages small-scale, pedestrian-oriented businesses operating within one- and two-story structures that are compatible with adjacent residential neighborhoods. This zoning creates an attractive opportunity for entrepreneurs, investors, and business owners seeking a location that blends neighborhood character with commercial potential. Just a short stroll from downtown Gretna's charming business district and only moments from the Westbank Expressway and downtown New Orleans, this property offers outstanding visibility, accessibility, and long-term potential in a vibrant historic setting. One of the LLC owners of this property is a licensed Broker in Louisiana but is not the listing Broker for this property.
