    What's special

    Timeless characterFenced yardBright and open homeFormal dining roomBeautifully tiled walk-in showerWide center hallwayFive-bedroom floor plan
    Located in the heart of the Historic Oakleigh Garden District, but walkable to close by Restaurants & Downtown Mobile. This bright and open home is filled with timeless character and natural light. From the moment you enter, you’ll appreciate the soaring 12-foot ceilings, gorgeous hardwood floors, transomed windows, and extensive moldings that reflect the charm and craftsmanship of a classic Southern home. A wide center hallway creates an inviting flow throughout the main level and opens graciously into the Living room, Formal dining room, and additional downstairs bedrooms. The dining room is currently being used as an office but could easily serve as a second downstairs bedroom depending on your needs. This rare five-bedroom floor plan offers exceptional flexibility with three bedrooms on the main level, including the spacious primary suite, and two additional bedrooms upstairs. The primary bedroom features an adjoining sitting room with a private exterior entrance leading to the backyard, creating the perfect retreat, home office, or quiet reading space. The primary bath includes a beautifully tiled walk-in shower and thoughtful updates that blend seamlessly with the home’s historic appeal. The well-appointed kitchen is designed for everyday living, featuring high-end appliances and excellent workspace. Just off the kitchen is a unique sunroom filled with natural light that would make an ideal breakfast room, office, or casual sitting area. Outdoor living is equally impressive with two porches overlooking the private backyard. The fenced yard offers wonderful entertaining possibilities with a brick fireplace, storage shed, and plenty of room for gatherings, gardening, or simply relaxing outdoors. There is also ample parking space capable of accommodating several vehicles as well as a golf cart — a true bonus in this sought-after historic neighborhood. This home combines historic elegance, modern comfort, and a rare amount of space in one of Mobile’s most desirable locations.
