The home was later purchased by Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft. From 1956 to 1965, it acted as a recording studio for musicians like Little Richard, Ike and Tina Turner, Fats Domino and Sam Cooke.
Located on Governor Nicholls St., the mansion was built in the early 1830s. According to Brigitte Fredy, the certified residential specialist working with the auction platform, it's been restored to provide "a mix of historical charm, modern functionality, and unparalleled privacy."
