About This Home
Stunning Spanish Colonial Home in Historic Midtown Mobile - Timeless Elegance Meets Modern Comfort.
Discover a rare opportunity to own a century-old Spanish Colonial masterpiece in the heart of Historic Midtown Mobile on Spring Hill Avenue. Just three doors from the historic Bragg-Mitchell Mansion, this 2,872 sq. ft. home was built with a fortress-like quality that endures, while offering modern updates for comfortable living.
There is a gracious front porch that greets you as you enter the home. Once inside, you will be captivated by high ceilings, curved archways, and abundant original millwork, all illuminated by large windows that fill the home with natural light. A large dining room and even more spacious living room (that features a large fireplace), and a music room off the living room, make it perfect for entertaining.
The two-story home has a half-bath downstairs and two full baths upstairs. The second floor offers four bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with ensuite and dressing room. The second floor also has two exterior balconies (one with French-door access), a classic Spanish Colonial architectural feature.
The half-acre corner lot is a garden-lover's paradise lovingly designed and planted over decades by the master gardener owner to enjoy blooms year-round. Some of the garden's features include old-growth live oak canopies, a giant magnolia, roses, evergreen dogwoods, ginkgo trees, azaleas, Japanese maples, many large traditional and hybrid camellias, and several varieties of palms. A bird and bees garden enhances the lush outdoor space, along with multiple fruit-bearing trees. Gardening enthusiasts will love the greenhouse, offering year-round plant cultivation opportunities. The garden is also enhanced with its own water well that supplies fresh ground water to the grounds.
Built to last, this home features a red clay tile roof, storm windows, cedar-lined closets, and a basement with interior access, as well as exterior storm door access - a rare find in the area. A two-car garage with a third bay for a workshop and two driveways, including a porte-chochere entry, offer ample parking and convenience. The screened porch on the back of the home allows for outdoor time without rain and mosquitoes.
With its prime Midtown location, modern system updates, and grand historic character, this home is a true treasure for those who appreciate classic architecture, timeless beauty, a super location, and a connection to nature.
