There’s something unmistakably special about this home in sought-after Evergreen Woods with Birmingham Schools—a sense of calm, light, and timeless style that could only come from the mid-century era. Built in 1963 and beautifully preserved, this tri-level home blends architectural integrity with thoughtful modern updates across over 2,000 square feet. Step inside and you’re greeted by soaring vaulted ceilings and exposed beams that frame the foyer and main family room, where sunlight pours through wide windows and warm wood paneling exudes mid-century cool. The 2017 kitchen remodel marries form and function with clean lines, modern finishes, and stainless appliances, while three full baths continue the home’s stylish updates. The lower-level walkout adds versatility—a second family room with wet bar and access to a peaceful courtyard, perfect for guests or quiet evenings in. Yet it’s the backyard that truly defines this property: an in-ground heated pool, surrounded by newer concrete and stamped patios, multiple spaces for lounging and dining, and a cabana with bar for effortless entertaining. Every corner of the yard tells its own story—green space for play, shady nooks for reading, open patios for gatherings—all fully fenced for privacy. With thoughtful upgrades including a 2021 roof, Generac transfer switch system, sump pump and water protection system, newer garage floor, stove, washer and more, this home offers peace of mind and style in equal measure. Located just minutes from downtown Birmingham’s shops, dining, and Beverly Village Park, this is a rare blend of design, comfort, and lifestyle—mid-century living at its most inspired!
