About This Home
Circa 1905 mansion envisioned by famed Mobile architect George B Rogers, the architect of Bellingrath Gardens and many local Mansions. This home will require much renovation to bring it back to its original splendor. This home originally featured pocket doors, in-laid parquet floors, coffered ceilings, a grand staircase with a backlit domed stained-glass ceiling and ornate plaster cornice. Some of the construction methods used, display a much earlier build date possibly a pre/post antebellum build date with post and beam / mortise and tenon framing. The home is essentially a shell at this point and will need much vision and dedication to bring it back. Property is zoned B1 which opens up many possibilities for new ideas & development. Building sits on a deep lot backing up to Conti Street. Seller has done much work to stabilize the structure. Come be part of the downtown revival. Listing agent must accompany all showings.
