    What's special

    Gorgeous 1929 historic Tudor, cherished by one family for many decades, sited on a graceful estate lot just minutes from Crestline Village, Mountain Brook Village, and English Village. Thoughtfully renovated in 2008, the home beautifully blends historic charm with refined luxury, featuring an expanded chef’s kitchen, serene primary suite, generous family room, and inviting porch addition. Brick was expertly matched to the original clinker brick to preserve its architectural integrity. Custom finishes, designer lighting, and a stunning outdoor fireplace elevate the home’s timeless appeal. A circular drive wraps around the back of the home, providing easy access to the classic porte-cochère and garage, with ample parking for family and guests—ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The carriage house, fully renovated in 2024, offers a bedroom, full bath, and kitchenette. Don't miss this rare opportunity!
