Description

This home could be one of the most charming Victorian cottages in the city. From the tops of the two front gables to the porch floor it is a perfect Gingerbread house. Three rooms have fireplaces that form a triangle. The kitchen has plenty of cabinets and counterspace and a window over the sink. This home has 3 rooms that could be considered bedrooms or you could very easily convert it to a 2/2 without adding on. A very small yard means you will not spend your weekends cutting grass and you do have off street parking in the back. The records from the historic department conclude that this house was built in 1897. The middle "sister" house, it is said that this house is one of three houses built for 3 daughters just before the turn of the century. Church Street East is a lovely historic neighborhood in downtown Mobile, in easy walking distance from parks, dining, museums, the market, entertainment, shopping and the waterfront. I cannot imagine living in a better neighborhood anywhere in Mobile. The walkability, neighbors and convenience is like no where else. Call me or your Realtor today to see this home and improve your quality of life.
