About This Home

As of February 2020

Incredibly loved and beautifully updated this charming Bluff Park cottage just what you have been waiting for. Minutes to I-65 & Downtown or a short drive to Vestavia and the Heart of Hoover, this home is convenient no matter where you are going! As you pull in the long driveway you will notice the beautifully maintained, flat front yard and will love the turn around parking for easy access onto Alford Ave. At the front door you will be invited by the charming porch swing and inside you will find beautiful hardwood floors with an abundance of natural light throughout the living room and dining room. Both flow wonderfully into the oversized kitchen located on the back of the house adjacent to the screened in porch and open deck. Perfect for entertaining! Down the hall (per Seller, there are hardwoods under carpet) are 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Master bath was renovated in 2018! Both guest bedrooms are spacious with ample closet storage and hardwood floors. This one won’t last long!
