About This Home
Located just a few blocks from Birmingham’s finest shops and restaurants, this completely reimagined 2024 end-unit townhome blends modern sophistication with the ease of a low-maintenance lifestyle. With over 2,290 square feet of finished living space across three levels, every inch has been thoughtfully upgraded with a designer’s eye for detail and functionality. The main floor welcomes with refinished hardwood flooring, a striking wood-slat accent wall, and new wrought-iron stair railing. Open living and dining spaces flow seamlessly into the chef’s kitchen, where a custom California Closets pantry, new cabinetry, and dramatic quartz counters and backsplash set a refined tone. A quartz waterfall island creates an elegant breakfast bar, while a full suite of new Whirlpool appliances, updated fixtures, and modern lighting deliver both style and performance. Remote-controlled Hunter Douglas Duette shades—programmable by app or timer—grace every window, adding both convenience and privacy. Upstairs, the serene primary suite boasts new carpeting, recessed lighting, and a custom walk-in dressing room by California Closets. Through the sliding door you'll find a private terrace overlooking a park that offers a sense of retreat rarely found in downtown living. The guest bedroom continues the elevated theme with refinished hardwood floors, custom closets—including one cleverly integrated with an office workstation—and all new lighting. The finished lower level adds 750 square feet with luxury vinyl plank flooring, recessed lighting, fresh paint, and a full bath, making it ideal for a media lounge, fitness studio, or guest suite. Outdoors, the fenced yard with turf dog run, lush new landscaping, and natural gas hookup create a private entertaining oasis. Completing the home are a detached garage with new flooring, an additional assigned parking space, and five Merrill Street guest passes—ensuring convenience for residents and visitors alike. Welcome to 255 Southfield.
