About This Home
Beautiful brick home in the heart of Birmingham, offering an unbeatable location just minutes from downtown and nearby parks. The spacious main floor features an open-concept design with a large kitchen complete with a center island and snack bar, seamlessly flowing into the family room and dining area. A cozy living space with a gas fireplace sits just off the kitchen, while high ceilings and abundant natural light enhance the entire level. The upper floors provide exceptional privacy with a thoughtfully designed layout. The second floor is dedicated entirely to the primary suite, creating a true retreat. The third floor includes two additional bedrooms and a full bath, while the fourth floor offers a versatile loft space with its own full bathroom and washer and dryer. The expansive basement has high ceilings, a full bathroom, large entertainment area, and wine cellar, along with an additional washer and dryer hookup for added convenience. A detached two-car garage includes a generously sized studio above--ideal for a home office, creative space, or quiet workspace separate from the main home. The fenced backyard provides a perfect setting for children, pets, or outdoor entertaining.
