This wonderfully unique Fairhope cottage combines the custom finishes of an updated home and the Southern charm of a historic cottage. Located in the heart of Fairhope's attractive Fruit & Nut section, you will find convenient walkability to boutique shopping, art galleries, fine dining, and numerous local events. This lovely home sits on a corner lot and features a wide front screened porch where you can enjoy the breeze off Mobile Bay, which is mere steps away from this home. The integrity of the classic style was maintained and the oversized family room was expanded with custom architecture updates including vaulted ceilings and an attractive stone fireplace. Designed by notable Gulf Coast architect Fred Wagner, the exposed roof trusses and flow of the main living space is ideal for both entertaining and enjoying coffee and a good book. The original hardwood floors and abundance of windows throughout this home accentuate the updated kitchen with an open concept design. The separate wine bar with stone counters, wine glass rack, glass front cabinets, and wine cooler is conveniently located near the kitchen. You will appreciate the spacious master suite on the main level with ample space to relax by the windows as well as the convenience of 3 large closets and a private bath. Upstairs you will find 3 more bedrooms and a full bathroom. Large walk-in closets and 2 large attic access points for easy storage round out the upstairs. Do you prefer to enjoy the coastal sounds and sunshine outdoors? The tranquil indoor/outdoor feel of this home benefits from 2 private, lushly landscaped patios conveniently situated on opposite sides of the den. A separate 680 sq. ft. guest house (that was once a barn!) with living room, bathroom, and open loft bedroom is available for your company to enjoy when visiting. The deep two-car carport has additional attic space is accessible from the Bayview St. side of the property. You are invited to make a showing appointment and tour today!
