About This Home

As of September 2023

Own a piece of Mobile history! Situated in Mobile’s oldest historic neighborhood, De Tonti Square was established in the early 1800s. The Fink-Thompson (Les Jumelles), meaning “The Twins”, homes were originally built in 1864 by Fink for his daughters. This home was later owned by Thompson, a Mardi Gras costume designer. Today, this Charleston Single House stands as a testament to Mobile’s architectural heritage. This stunning historic home showcases beautifully refinished heart pine flooring, high ceilings, heavy crown molding, multiple fireplaces, plantation shutters and a separate dining room. The stunning chef’s kitchen features top of the line appliances including a Viking 6 burner gas range, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a wet bar with wine cooler and split brick flooring. Off the kitchen is an additional living area with tons of natural light, and a view of the cozy backyard which features a kidney shaped pool, koi pond and is fenced for privacy. Upstairs are two bedrooms, two full bathrooms and a full sized laundry closet. The primary bedroom has its own fireplace, walk-in closet, and en-suite featuring a glass door shower and soaking tub combo. The outside of the home is freshly painted, has a new awning above the front door, and a new roof in 2020! Schedule your private showing of this historic home today!
