This beautifully renovated Birmingham bungalow blends classic charm with modern comfort. From the inviting curb appeal to its stylish interior, every detail has been thoughtfully updated. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Birmingham, the home offers both a cozy living room and a spacious family room perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
The open galley kitchen features rich cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and elegant hardwood floors. The primary bathroom was fully renovated in 2025, offering a fresh, modern retreat with updated finishes. The finished lower level provides versatile additional living space, ideal for a home office, gym, or recreation room.
Outside, enjoy a professionally landscaped, private, fenced backyard and a 2-car garage (built in 2014) with bonus space above, perfect for a studio, workshop, or extra storage.
