The Beauregard-Keyes House was built in 1826 by a wealthy New Orleans auctioneer. This "raised cottage" features Doric columns and handsome twin staircases, and was once home to General P.T.G.

From 1944 to 1970 it was the residence of novelist Frances Parkinson Keyes, who wrote a book about the General.
