Description

Welcome home to one of the cutest cottages in highly desirable Country Club Village! Brimming with character, thoughtful updates, and undeniable curb appeal, this beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home is a true gem. Reflecting the pride of ownership found throughout, the sellers recently replaced several sections of wood siding and completed a full exterior paint project, giving the home a fresh, well-maintained appearance. In addition, there is new landscaping, a beautifully updated carport area, updated windows, and a charming awning over the front entry that creates a warm and inviting first impression. Step inside to a versatile front room currently used as a dining area, though it could easily serve as a family room or living space. This welcoming room features beautiful wood flooring, a stunning wood-beamed ceiling, and a decorative fireplace that adds timeless character and charm. Beyond the front room, you'll find a spacious, beautifully updated kitchen that's sure to be the heart of the home. Showcasing continued wood-beamed ceilings, butcher block countertops, sage-green cabinetry, and glass-front upper cabinets, this space perfectly blends cottage charm with modern style. Just beyond the kitchen is a comfortable den featuring attractive wood-style flooring and a smooth ceiling, creating an ideal space for relaxing or entertaining. The primary bedroom is both spacious and cozy, while the second bedroom offers generous space as well. In addition, a separate room with gorgeous built-in cabinetry provides incredible flexibility and could easily function as a third bedroom, home office, craft room, or study. The bathroom is a showstopper, offering the charm of a classic 1950s design with modern updates. Features include a freestanding tub/shower combination, beautifully tiled walls, updated lighting, and a lovely vanity that completes the space. The oversized laundry room provides excellent functionality and includes an attached walk-in closet for exceptional storage. Outside, you'll love the newly constructed deck overlooking the large, fenced backyard—perfect for outdoor entertaining, gardening, pets, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. A one-car carport is conveniently located along the side of the home. Country Club Village offers an incredible lifestyle with neighborhood amenities that include a park with expansive green space, playground, and new pickleball courts. Enjoy weekend brunches at nearby favorites, stroll through and play in Lavretta Park, or explore the beauty of the Mobile Botanical Gardens, located nearby. Conveniently situated between the University of South Alabama and Spring Hill College, you'll enjoy easy access to shopping, dining, recreation, and everyday conveniences. This storybook cottage combines charm, character, location, and updates in one truly special package. Don't miss your opportunity to make it yours!
