This rare treasure features 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, double parlor, dining room, kitchen, den, double gallery, and an additional guest quarters with rental income potential. This historically significant home radiates Southern elegance and stately charm at every turn. The side hall with double parlor is ideal for entertaining with soaring 13' ceilings, 10' pocket doors, floor length windows, heart pine flooring, eared architraves that crown the doors and windows and a majestic three-story staircase with mahogany handrails. Architectural details abound with marble mantels on both floors, crystal chandeliers, 1840's tiered chandelier, plaster ceiling medallions and plaster cornices, an extremely rare cast iron ceiling medallion in the dining room, an 1820's original kitchen hearth, a double rear gallery overlooking a New Orleans style courtyard with skyline views of downtown Mobile. An urban oasis in the heart of the city shaded by mature trees and surrounded with cast iron streetlights. This is more than a home - it's a living artifact.
