    "Walk to the park, library, bar, forest park. Just a few seconds from all major interstates and roads. You can't get much better than this in such a great location. Avondale is the next hot spot. "

    "Close to downtown and UAB but feels like you are far away from city with two pecan trees and mature dogwoods, great 19th century wood frame house in the backyard (add'l 900+ sq feet). This is a beautiful early 20th Century neighborhood, one of the first suburbs of Birmingham. It has lovely Arts and Crafts and Tudor homes, sidewalks, parks, and a small village with grocery store and restaurants within walking distance. Convenient to downtown, grocery stores, and highways, but shady and tree-filled so its feels far away."
