Rich in history, craftsmanship, and scale, the home showcases extraordinary masonry, hand-selected Alabama limestone detailing, intricate brickwork, and pronounced dentil crown molding. Inside, a grand central hallway welcomes you beneath soaring 12-foot ceilings, white oak hardwood floors, hand-finished plaster walls, coffered ceilings, and five original fireplaces create an atmosphere of refined elegance. Designed for both entertaining and everyday living, the home features expansive gathering spaces, a formal dining room adorned with custom De Gournay silk wall coverings, and a richly appointed library with heart pine built-ins, designer lighting, and a rolling ladder. The chef’s kitchen is equipped with Wolf, Bosch, and Sub-Zero appliances, a warming drawer, and an adjoining butler’s pantry complete with a built-in ice machine and bar area. Modern conveniences are thoughtfully integrated throughout, including Waterworks fixtures and tankless water heaters. Outdoors, a private courtyard inspired by New Orleans architecture is enclosed by brick privacy walls and accented by iconic Bevolo lanterns. An elevated terrace provides an exceptional setting for outdoor dining and entertaining A rare rear alley access—highly coveted within North Hill—offers the opportunity for a future carriage house, pool, detached garage, or guest quarters Steeped in history yet curated for modern luxury, 116 W.
