Maison Rougaroux

A Classic Camelback Style Home in NOLA

Stay like a local in this holiday rental in New Orleans where you can bask in the magic of the Crescent City surrounded by that quintessential New Orleans architecture and charm. 

Designed by hometown architect Corbett Scott, the South, and its rich architectural history has had a particular impact on Scott, sparking an interest in how buildings are informed by their inhabitants, purpose and environment. 

Playing with the nuanced relationship between materials, light and space, Scott strives to elevate the aesthetics of a home with design that connects and resonates with everyday living lending a sense of place and familiarity. 

Created in the classic ‘camelback’ style, the design dates to the late 19th century when there were architectural restrictions that limited development and gives guests a sense of what it was like to be living in New Orleans at that time.

The atmospheric neighborhood immerses you into the pulse of the city, where favorite bars and restaurants are woven into the fabric of the street scenes, and neighbors who are an integral part of the culture and the real NOLA flavor.

Flickering gas lamps welcome you to a place where you can immerse yourself in authentic NOLA atmosphere that embodies both the historic and the modern. Designed and custom built by southern architect Corbett Scott, the home's camelback design and quintessential New Orleans architecture fits right in with the city's historic charms.

The home's main living space is illuminated by windows on all sides, with a dining area and French doors that lead out to the gardens and patio. 

The large professionally equipped kitchen is a foodie's dream with a central island that creates convivial social spaces for sharing. There are three light-filled double bedrooms on the upper floor with room for up to six guests. The outdoor terrace has dining spaces and a front porch that puts you right in the scene. 

Custom details include patchwork tile and original artwork, with clubby Chesterfield furnishings and timeless antique finishes and decor that lend an old world elegance that connects you with the city's unique past.
