Rare double Midtown lot with charming curb appeal circa 1896 Victorian with wrap around porch, original door hardware, reeded base moldings, fireplaces, and more! Newer crown molding throughout the home enhances the original moldings and the 13 foot ceilings give it an even larger and airy feel. Relax on the wrap around porch before the walk to the Mardi Gras parade route, which is just 1.1 miles as well as all the fun of Downtown Mobile.
The wraparound porch features a 15 x 7 side porch with the main porch being 7 feet deep. An attached carport offers more covered 16 x 12 space. Inside, a 30 x 6 hallway with original wainscot ushers you into the living room and the dining room. The living room has a decorate fireplace with tall built in shelves and the dining room has original drawers built in for linens. Across the hallway, there are two of the three total bedrooms; each have an original mantle. One bedroom has an extra seating area 15 x 7 and a Victorian center molding. A renovated tiled bathroom with updated lighting and bath vanity is next door in the hallway. The U-shaped kitchen has floor to ceiling stained cabinetry with wood style countertops with inset granite piece for chopping/kneading dough. Mosiac blue glass backsplash complements the stained cabinetry. A stained glass transom window is also a feature of the kitchen. All appliances to remain, including the side by side Whirlpool fridge. Off the kitchen is a hallway leading to pantry and laundry area with sink, as well as the primary bedroom with a half bath that was updated with new lighting, tile, and a vanity. The back entrance which was used as a breakfast area leads to the expansive back yard. Picket fencing encloses the fantastic and private backyard. There is a brick with marble accents patio 21 x 20 with separate area with grill. Shed remains. There is more room to park cars behind fence on the nice brick-edged parking pad. There is also a substantial northern side yard and the entire yard is edged with azaleas.
