1561 Fearnway St, Mobile, AL 36604

VERY MOTIVATED SELLER! Welcome to a journey down the corridors of history as we explore the aristocratic heritage of Mayor Charles A Baumhauer's ancestral home. Constructed somewhere between 1917-1925, this illustrious property is racing toward the countdown of its first centennial celebration! For almost 100 years, 1561 Fearnway has been home to the original Baumhauer family. From 1917 through into the 1920's, Fearnway was the first streetcar subdivision and today is completely surrounded by the Dauphin Way United Methodist Church and parking lot, McGill School as well as the exclusive Monterey neighborhood. Some 11 years ago the property was professionally re-landscaped by master gardener, Donald Zimlich and in recent months the house has also acquired * NEW 30 yr roof *NEW A/C and furnace *NEW additional attic insulation. All the caulking throughout the house was recently stripped and reapplied. The owners of this quintessential bungalow styled home have chosen to retain the clean lines of the original layout with the exception of adding a second bathroom and enlarging the kitchen which has been totally renovated and updated. Due to the unique gable structure of the roof, the owner has established that the house could very easily be expanded into incorporating a second story. And then finally?we step out into one of the best rooms of all, the huge covered front porch where life seems to stand still. From this elevated space we invite you to step back in time and enjoy the pleasing ambiance of the Fernway "greenbelt". Whether curling up in a rocking chair for an early morning coffee or enjoying a glass of Merlot at sunset, may we suggest that this is not so much about a place to live as perhaps a lifestyle. We invite you to make your appointment with destiny today! We are persuaded that you will be so pleased that you did!
