A true Southern beauty, this elegant 1923 residence is a rare offering in beloved Ashland Place, where towering live oaks and distinctive architecture create one of Mobile’s most cherished historic neighborhoods. Set on an expansive footprint of just under half an acre - this remarkable property offers a sense of space and possibility close to everything.
From the moment you step inside, the home’s character is unmistakable. Twelve-foot ceilings, crown molding, original hardwood floors, and sweeping staircase evoke another era, while thoughtful updates have made the home wonderfully livable for today. Improvements include a New Roof in 2020, New HVAC systems in 2017 & 2022, and a Rinnai Tankless water heater in 2014. The spacious formal living room is anchored by a beautiful wood-burning fireplace, while the all-glass sunroom invites the outdoors in and offers a lovely place to linger over your morning coffee. The formal dining room, complete with built-in china cabinet, is well suited for holidays, dinner parties, and slow evenings around the table.
The kitchen was thoughtfully renovated in 2014, and that same year a brick back porch was added to create an inviting spot for porch sitting or entertaining. In the kitchen you will find stainless steel appliances, granite counters, ample cabinetry, and an orginal built-in breakfast booth. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes a a dressing room with three closets and a light-filled, window-lined office. There is a large pass through bathroom as well as another private en-suite in the 3rd bedroom. The additional bedroom filled with windows situated on the landing has a double set of closets. The large attic with cedar closets and a separate cellar provide an abundance of storage. And there are the extras that make this home truly exceptional - a privately fenced back yard, wide wrap around back porch and a garage just off the alleyway with a 500 sq ft apartment above. Whether envisioned for guests, extended family, a home office, or simply having room to spread out, these spaces add an extraordinary dimension to the property. This is the kind of home that simply cannot be replicated - a gracious piece of Mobile history with beautiful architectural details, remarkable grounds, and an abundance of living and working space. A true Southern treasure in one of Ashland Place’s most special settings about to hit the market. All measurements to be confirmed by buyer.
