1623 Gilmer Ave Montgomery, AL 36104

Old world charm at its finest! This stately English Tudor designed by renowned Montgomery architect Frank Lockwood, is most impressive from the time you drive under the canopy of oaks to the elaborate marble fountain at the entrance of the home. The foyer opens to the second floor with its original plaster embossing of small animals and plants. What sets this home apart from most is the abundance of large and small rooms available for entertaining or just relaxing. The warm paneled study with fireplace and leaded glass windows is perfect for work or just reading a book. Walk through the arched doorways of the large living area into the cozy sunroom or the formal dining room. Three pair of french doors lead out of the elegant dining area onto the large screened porch. The large kitchen with a custom island is the perfect place for family and friends to gather. Retreat to the impressive master suite that includes a large bedroom, bath with steam shower, dressing area, his/her closets and a sitting area with fireplace and private balcony that overlooks the back gardens. Two large bedrooms are also on this floor, with a fourth bedroom on the third floor. The screened porch has the original wall fountain, glass roof and screened sides. Enjoy the gardens in the bird cage pavilion or relaxing by the private heated pool. Not included in the square footage is an adorable guest cottage with bedroom, bath and fireplace. On the other side of the double garage is an exercise room. The home has a slate roof and well for irrigation.
