About This Home
Classic brick ranch, mature shade trees and hardwood floors—511 E Barksdale offers the kind of character that's getting harder to find at this price point.
This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,350 square feet of comfortable one-level living in Mobile's Brookwood neighborhood. Step inside to a bright living area filled with natural light from the oversized front windows, complemented by original hardwood, split-brick and tile flooring throughout—no carpet to worry about.
The kitchen brings plenty of personality with painted cabinetry, warm butcher-block countertops, a reach-in pantry and a gas range, with the refrigerator remaining with the home. Two full bathrooms add everyday convenience, while the third bedroom provides flexible space for guests, a home office, creative studio or hobby room and features charming built-in bookcases.
Outside, mature trees provide shade across the front and backyard, while the fully fenced backyard offers room for pets, gardening, entertaining or simply relaxing outdoors. A covered sitting area creates another spot to unwind, and the climate-controlled storage room adds valuable flexibility for a workshop, office, hobby space or additional storage. A separate backyard storage shed also remains.
Additional peace of mind comes from a current termite bond with Cook's.
If you've been searching for a home with classic character, hardwood floors, two full baths, a fenced yard and useful bonus space without stretching the budget, 511 E Barksdale deserves a closer look.
