The Claiborne Mansion | A Legacy Estate in the Marigny
Just blocks to the French Quarter, in the heart of Marigny, the Claiborne Mansion stands as a rare example of New Orleans’ architectural and cultural heritage.
Built in 1859 by W.C.C. Claiborne, son of Louisiana’s first American governor, this magnificent Greek Revival residence embodies the timeless elegance of historic New Orleans. Inside, soaring ceilings, intricate marble mantels, parlor doors, ornate cornices, and remarkable wide-plank wood floors reflect a level of craftsmanship rarely preserved today.
Beyond its stately façade lies an unexpected private sanctuary. Set on an expansive 1/3 acre lot, the grounds reveal lush landscaping, generous off-street parking, a covered cabana, and striking 40-foot saltwater pool.
Over its 134-year history, and only five owners, the property has served as both residential and commercial endeavors, most recently operating as the Claiborne Mansion Bed & Breakfast, a boutique hospitality destination.
The residence and service wing, span approx 8,000 sq ft with ten bathrooms, offering extraordinary scale and versatility. Equally suited for a grand private residence or creative commercial vision, the property presents exceptional possibilities for the next steward of this historic estate.
To experience the Claiborne Mansion is to understand the rare allure of a true New Orleans legacy property—one that offers not only architectural beauty but also the privilege of continuing its remarkable story.
