A must-see in Midtown! Located on a quiet street just off of Springhill Avenue, this charming cottage offers easy access to all that Mobile has to offer….downtown, midtown and west mobile. A perfect space for a couple or new family, this well-maintained two bed room, one bath home has loads of character. A lovely arched entryway into the formal dining room makes an excellent space for intimate dinners and family gatherings (or a pop-up home office!). The cozy kitchen, with stainless steel appliances, offers plenty of space for cooking. Pull-down stairs lead to a spacious, decked attic for additional storage. Private backyard with wood fence and a detached single car garage with extra storage space for your yard gear.

Single-Family Residential Districts
These districts are composed of both developed and largely undeveloped areas. The developed areas contain mainly one-family dwellings and small open areas, usually subdivided, where residential development seems likely to occur; few two-family and multiple-family dwellings are found in these developed areas. It is anticipated that most of the large undeveloped areas will ultimately be developed for residential use. The district regulations are designed to protect the residential character of the developed areas by prohibiting commercial activities and encouraging a suitable neighborhood environment for family life.
