About This Home
As of June 2025Charming Midtown cottage featuring 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, including an oversized master suite with plenty of space to relax. This home blends original character with modern livability. Don't overlook the original hardwood floors in parts of the home that add warmth and timeless appeal. All of the heavy lifting has been done for you....roof has been replaced with architectural shingles, no sticking wood windows here-all vinyl and an HVAC system replaced to help with utility bills and to provide comfort no matter the season. Located in the heart of Midtown, this property offers convenient access to shopping, dining, and all that Mobile has to offer. A great opportunity to own a spacious cottage in one of the city's most centrally located neighborhoods. To see the growth in this area one only has to look around the corner. 261 Rickarby Street, is the location for a new proposed subdivision named Woodcock Place. This brand new development is slated to have 22 lots. Buyer to verify all facts. This could be an investment property or your new home....but call your REALTOR fast before it's gone.
