About This Home
As of May 2024OFFER DEADLINE SUNDAY 5/5 @ 8PM Here's your opportunity to become a part of the growing Triangle District while you can! Blending modern convenience with historic charm, this thoughtfully updated Colonial sits on a tree-lined street just steps from downtown Birmingham. The swooping roof line, flowering tree, bountiful hydrangeas & covered porch offer undeniable curb appeal, welcoming you into your new home. Beaming with character, original features such as antique hardware, thick hardwood trim & exposed brick offer a glimpse into the past. As you enter the foyer, 9-foot ceilings greet you as light shines through new windows. Relax beside the gas fireplace on cool evenings or enjoy reading a book in the study, featuring built-ins & wood "parlor" pocket door. In the heart of the home, the kitchen has been redesigned to provide generous workspace with custom cabinetry, Quartz countertops & appliances that stay. Begin your day with a cup of coffee in the adjacent nook with convenient access to the backyard-with beautiful flowering trees surrounding the deck & gravel firepit area. The owners have truly maximized space in this home-don't miss the cozy hideaway under the stairs! Moving upstairs, you’ll find an updated primary suite with walk-thru closet, along with two additional bedrooms & updated full baths. The finished lower level offers approximately 840 sq ft of living space, with “bonus” room & plenty of space to work, play, & exercise. Walk to shops, restaurants, & many parks. Highly-acclaimed Birmingham schools. Exciting developments coming to the Triangle District: a crosswalk at Woodward—connecting Forest Ave & Brown St (downtown)—is under construction, as well as townhomes approved for construction at Forest Ave/Elm St & mixed-use residential/retail proposed for Woodward/Maple Rd. Don't miss out! See property features sheet for updates & exclusions. Sellers prefer 60 days occupancy. Seller is licensed Mortgage Originator and preferred lender, offering discounted origination fee for qualifying buyers. BATVAI
