Property Description

Coming Soon: A true Southern beauty, this elegant 1923 residence is a rare offering in beloved Ashland Place, where towering live oaks, generous lots, and distinctive architecture create one of Mobile's most cherished historic neighborhoods. Set on an unusually expansive footprint of just under half an acre surrounding the main house and an additional parcel of almost half an acre beyond the alley - this remarkable property offers a sense of space and possibility that is exceedingly hard to find.From the moment you step inside, the home's character is unmistakable. Twelve-foot ceilings, crown molding, original hardwood floors, and sweeping staircase evoke another era, while thoughtful updates have made the home wonderfully livable for today. Improvements include a new roof in 2020, new HVAC systems in 2017 and 2022, and a tankless water heater installed in 2014. The spacious formal living room is anchored by a beautiful wood-burning fireplace, while the all-glass sunroom invites the outdoors in and offers a lovely place to linger over your morning coffee. The formal dining room, complete with built-in china cabinet, is well suited for holidays, dinner parties, and slow evenings around the table. The kitchen was thoughtfully renovated in 2014, and that same year a covered brick back porch was added to create an inviting spot for porch sitting or entertaining. In the kitchen you will find stainless steel appliances, granite counters, ample cabinetry, and an orginal built-in breakfast booth. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes a light-filled, window-lined office. There is a large pass through bathroom as well as another private en-suite in the 3rd bedroom. The large attic with cedar closets and a separate cellar provide an abundance of storage.Then there are the extras that make this home truly exceptional - a garage with a 500 sq ft apartment above, a charming 800 sq foot guest house set on the back lot, and a substantial 24' x 48' workshop with a large rolling door. Whether envisioned for guests, extended family, a home office, hobbies, creative pursuits, or simply having room to spread out, these spaces add an extraordinary dimension to the property. This is the kind of home that simply cannot be replicated - a gracious piece of Mobile history with beautiful architectural details, remarkable grounds, and an abundance of living and working space. A true Southern treasure in one of Ashland Place's most special settings about to hit the market. All measurements to be confirmed by buyer.
