| DESCRIPTION |
|
You are invited to experience Ashton's Bed & Breakfast, located in the charming Esplanade Ridge Historic District, adjacent to the French Quarter. Your Innkeepers, Karma and Patrick Ashton, offer gracious B&B accommodations and Southern hospitality from this antebellum mansion. The B&B was established in 1989 as Mechling's Guest House by Karma's Parents. Karma and Patrick purchased the property in 1998, and have continued the extensive renovation while constantly upgrading the level of services offered to guests from all over the world.
This center-hall Greek Revival mansion (10,000 s.f.) was built in 1861 for A. B. Charpantier, just before the outbreak of the Civil War. As you enter through the arched wrought-iron gate, you are surrounded by lush greenery, and welcomed onto the large front veranda. Inside the main house, fifteen foot ceilings, key doorways, spacious rooms, and fine furnishings tell you this is no ordinary house. You can enjoy relaxing in the beautiful parlor, with its original carved marble mantel and magnificent chandelier; or wander the gardens and discover the majestic ancient oak tree that dominates the rear yard. |
