About This Home
Downtown Birmingham at your feet. This loft-style condo in the iconic Watts Tower delivers on every level. With two bedrooms that have custom closets built to maximize every inch, a large and well-appointed bathroom, high ceilings, and 5th-floor windows that flood the space with natural light, this unit is hard to beat. The views remind you exactly why you chose downtown. The building itself has the kind of character that newer construction spends decades trying to replicate. Step outside and you're in the middle of everything downtown Birmingham does best: acclaimed restaurants, coffee shops, rooftop bars, live music, and theaters that are all within reach without touching your car. The 3rd Avenue corridor puts you at the center of the most vibrant stretch in the city. Plus: parking space included! The condo fees make life easier by covering water, sewer, reserves, building insurance, and more. This is the downtown condo Birmingham buyers keep asking for.
