Coming Soon...Happy 100th birthday to this Government Street beauty! Designed by local architect, C.L. Hutchisson,Sr. and Built in 1924, this home is a true Mobile treasure, known as the "Elephant Walk." This iconic downtown gem has been well maintained and updated throughout. Approaching the front, you are lead to a grand tiled veranda that overlooks the lush front and side yards. French doors surround the entryway, ideal for hosting indoor/outdoor gatherings. The "L" shaped foyer surrounds the office (formerly a music room) and is highlighted with Roman-bordered tile floors and antique pendant lights. The bright and spacious formal living room showcases a massive bay window, large fireplace, and coffered ceiling. The formal dining room boasts a beautiful fireplace, coffered ceiling and is grand enough for large dinner parties or gatherings. A butler's pantry/breakfast room charms with an intimate seating area and storage galore in original cabinetry. The cottage-style kitchen offers new tile flooring, commercial-style gas range, butcher block countertops, porcelain farmhouse sink and painted cabinetry. Past the kitchen, to the back of the house, is a flex space currently used as a large laundry room but would make a cozy den, workout room or office. Three generously sized bedrooms are bathed in natural light and all bathrooms have been completely remodeled! Truly one of a kind, this Arts and Crafts style home shines from the outside-in and has been meticulously maintained down to the basement. This home has historic charm with modern conveniences such as period moldings, stunning hardwood flooring, all new electrical wiring and is generator-ready. The backyard features a double garage and a storage building or potential guesthouse. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
