Property Description
Homes on this coveted section of Dauphin Street rarely become available, making this a truly exceptional opportunity. Ideally located just minutes from some of Mobile's finest nurseries and highly regarded public and private schools, including Murphy High School, McGill-Toolen Catholic High School, and St. Mary's Catholic School, which is conveniently located directly behind the property. Enjoy one of the city's most beloved neighborhoods, famous for its festive Halloween celebrations and timeless charm.
Situated on an oversized, approximately 212-foot-deep lot, this property offers an expansive, fenced backyard (2022) with access from a private rear alley. The large rear parking area, added in 2022, accommodates up to eight vehicles. The backyard was professionally regraded in 2022 to improve drainage, creating an ideal space for entertaining, gardening, or future outdoor enhancements.
Step inside through the rear entrance into a custom-built library completed in 2022. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, a breakfast bar, and modern finishes (2022). Beautiful hardwood floors extend throughout the home, with the exception of the kitchen, library, and bathrooms.
The main level offers an oversized living room with a historic, non-operable fireplace, an elegant formal dining room with a second historic, non-operable fireplace, a spacious laundry and storage room updated in 2022, a large storage closet, and a full bathroom. Double front doors open onto a classic wraparound porch overlooking historic Dauphin Street.
A stunning staircase leads to the second floor, where you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a bright sunroom, and a spacious balcony with sweeping views of Dauphin Street. The primary suite includes a private bathroom and a third historic, non-operable fireplace. All bedrooms feature built-in closets for added storage.
For year-round comfort, each floor is served by its own HVAC system, both of which have been routinely inspected and maintained under a service contract.
This historic home seamlessly blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates in one of Midtown Mobile's most sought-after locations.
