A New Orleans compound constructed by a competitive cotton tycoon has hit the market for the first time in almost 30 years.

Known as the Buckner Mansion, the sprawling 168-year-old estate in the Garden District has seven bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms, and both historic significance and modern relevance.

But it may also catch the attention among fans of a certain series. In 2013, FX included the property in a season of “American Horror Story,” where the exterior plays the part of a boarding school for witches called Miss Robichaux’s Academy for Exceptional Young Ladies. (Interiors, as is typical in film and television production, were filmed on a soundstage elsewhere.)

It asks $4.5 million.

Built in 1856 for Henry Sullivan Buckner, the 9,062-square-foot dwelling was intended to compete with the cotton baron’s former partner-turned-competitor Frederick Stanton’s Mississippi mansion, Stanton Hall, according to Atlas Obscura.

After the Buckners sold the grand Greek Revival abode in 1923, it became a respected business school with numerous notable alumni, before once again becoming a private residence.

The property still features much of its original old world charm, including two floors of columns ornamenting wraparound porches.

Inside the carved mahogany front door there is a grand center hall, a three-room parlor with a two-tiered bronze dore chandelier in each room, ornamental plasterwork and a built-out attic. As well, the grounds feature mature landscaping, a brick pathway, a slate patio, two driveways and a detached two-car garage.

The home is the largest surviving residence built by New Orleans architect Lewis E. Reynolds, according to press materials.
