Property Description

Nestled in the heart of Midtown, this perfectly cream-colored historic home exudes charm and sophistication at every turn. With its exceptional curb appeal—manicured landscaping, a newer concrete driveway, and a welcoming front porch complete with a swing —this home invites you to relax, entertain, and enjoy the essence of luxurious living. As you step inside the beautiful, handmade antique pine door, a grand entry hall leads you into a thoughtfully designed floor plan, bathed in natural light from every angle. The spacious living room, anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace, is ideal for both intimate gatherings and casual evenings at home. Plantation shutters adorn the windows throughout, offering both elegance and privacy, except in the formal dining room, where a charming built-in buffet with glass-front cabinets and a decorative original fireplace creates an unforgettable dining experience. The kitchen is a true masterpiece, featuring custom cabinetry that reaches to the ceiling for ample storage, sleek granite and quartz countertops, a gas range, a wine cooler, and a dedicated space for an office or walk-in pantry. The primary suite is a serene retreat, with a generously sized bedroom, a walk-in closet with custom shelving, and a luxurious bathroom featuring a walk-in shower with a built-in bench and a separate soaking tub for ultimate relaxation. Two additional bedrooms and a half bath for guests provide ample space for family and visitors, while an extra bathroom boasts a custom shower and your own private sauna, a perfect touch for rejuvenation. The updated bathrooms strike the perfect balance of historic charm and modern luxury, with carefully chosen tiles that enhance the home's original character. Step outside, and you'll discover an incredible backyard oasis designed for relaxation and entertaining. A multi-level wooden deck overlooks a stunning, professionally landscaped yard and a sparkling, heated pool with a rock water feature and a custom concrete surround, providing ample space for lounge chairs and sunbathing. Perfect for outdoor entertaining, the area also features a double garage with a perfect space for an outdoor TV and a separate pool storage area. For your furry friends, a large turfed area is fenced off, ensuring they have their own space to play without disrupting the pristine zoysia grass that graces both the front and back yards. The entire yard is easily maintained, thanks to a landscape meter that serves the pool and backyard sprinkler system. Additional features include a fortified roof, a tankless hot water heater, original hardwood floors throughout, a full-size attic for tons of storage or ready to be built out for more living space, and simply a home that seamlessly blends historic elegance with contemporary comforts. Don't miss the chance to own this rare gem—where luxury, history, and modern living come together in perfect harmony on a charming street close to all things Midtown life has to offer. Owner is the listing agent and is a licensed Real Estate Broker in the state of Alabama.
