Enjoy the breeze and tranquility of waterfront living with breathtaking, panoramic views of Mobile Bay from this beautifully restored historic Bay Cottage. Perfectly positioned on a rare split double lot, both the main residence and guest cottage are located outside the flood plain, offering the significant benefit of reduced flood insurance costs. Since the previous listing, the home has undergone extensive improvements, including replacement of most of the sub-flooring, a beautifully renovated kitchen and bathroom, and the installation of new flooring throughout much of the home. Expansive porches offer spectacular sunrises over the bay. Inside, abundant natural light, hardwood floors, and a cozy gas-log fireplace create a warm, inviting atmosphere. A fully renovated guest cottage provides exceptional flexibility for visiting family and friends, a private home office, or potential income-producing opportunities. Outside, the fenced yard is ideal for pets, while mature trees create a peaceful, private setting. Just minutes from downtown Mobile, this exceptional property offers the rare combination of historic charm, modern updates, and unmatched waterfront living. Furnishings are negotiable with an acceptable offer.
Bayview, located between Downtown Mobile and the shores of Mobile Bay, is a residential and waterfront Mobile neighborhood with oak-lined streets and bay-breeze views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Bayview Avenue corridor near the water, where marinas, casual seafood counters, and porch-front bars set a salt-air rhythm. The Bayview Park shoreline and walking paths frame daily routines with open sky and pelican sightings. Housing leans toward mid-century ranches and Gulf Coast cottages, with deep lots and mature trees. The nearby USS ALABAMA Battleship Memorial Park and the Mobile Carnival Museum add a distinctly Mobile cultural backdrop. Dauphin Island Parkway ties the area to working waterfront scenes and weekend drives toward the coast.

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.
