Description

This remarkable 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom ranch in Birmingham is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship. As you step inside, you'll be captivated by the exquisite attention to detail in every area. The interior is a true masterpiece, with crawford ceilings, beams on the ceiling and moldings that are thoughtfully matched, creating a sense of charm that's inviting. Beautiful hardwood floors add warmth and character to the space. But that's not all—this home has been completely renovated with updated electrical, plumbing, and efficient heating and hot water systems. It boasts a Viking stove, fully integrated Miele refrigerator and dishwasher. Everything you see in this house is new, with the exception of the floors and windows that have been stripped down back to wood. The addition of a bay with French doors to the master bedroom gives it more room and a view of the garden. The 2-car detached garage and a basement add convenience and ample storage space. Don't miss the opportunity to make this stunning ranch your forever home. Schedule your showing today and step into a world where craftsmanship, elegance, and modern convenience meet.
