Welcome Home to a Masterpiece. This amazing villa has been expertly renovated and is ready for its next discriminating owner who appreciates the finer things. The Mediterranean Revival architecture of this home is a rarity to Birmingham. Constructed in the 1920's by renowned Architect Dwight James Baum of materials and appointments that would be virtually cost-prohibitive to reproduce. The hedged front yard provides maximum privacy, and leads one to the large front veranda and covered entrance loggia. Entering the home into the Grand Salon one will immediately take note of the oversized limestone fireplace; copper oculus skylight and the detailed appointments. The property features three private courtyards one of which feels like an extension of the kitchen; the feel is inviting and is an entertainer's dream. The layout provides the open flow of the public areas and ultimate privacy to all bedrooms. This home has details that will amaze you. You will be proud to live here.
