Yes, it is. The childhood home of Mona Mayfair.

And here I thought I'd only have a drawing of the house as it appeared
in The Witches' Companion (working on it). This house was used in the novel Lasher.
It was the childhood
home of Mona Mayfair before the
deaths of Alicia and Gifford, the increasing drunkenness of her father
Patrick and Rowan's
sterilization and ensuing inability
to produce a legacy heir of the required vintage. Upon these events,
Mona moved
to the First Street house, the
traditional home of the Legacy Witch. However, she did not abandon the
property and much
like Anne Rice herself was doing at
the time she wrote Lasher, Mona had the house fully restored, the completion being
noted at the end of Taltos. Apparently, she did a good job. Take a look.
Well, that's all for now, folks. But take a look at the handy link I've supplied for your reading pleasure. It lists the house's address in New Orleans as 3711 Saint Charles Avenue, which is also noted in The Witches' Companion.
