Completely renovated beginning in 2023 with continued improvements through 2025, this exceptional Fairhope home offers an blend of location, quality, and flexibility, just minutes from Downtown Fairhope, Mobile Bay, and the Grand Hotel. The home has been thoughtfully updated with electrical improvements completed in 2023, HVAC systems serving the primary residence installed in 2018, and a 2023 mini-split HVAC system serving the separate guest suite. A gas tankless water heater adds efficiency and convenience, along with a Brigs & Stratton 26KW whole house generator.

Outdoor living is enhanced by screened porches with custom framed, removable screens and a covered front porch addition completed in 2025, adding both curb appeal and functional outdoor space. The level yard was updated in 2025 with extensive landscaping, including flagstone walkways, irrigation, metal edging, Texas river rock, mature plantings, and a landscaped wall along Rivenbark Lane, creating a polished and inviting outdoor setting. A detached storage/workshop provides excellent flexibility for storage or hobbies. The property includes separate guest quarters that are currently rented, and the home is short-term rental eligible, offering outstanding income potential, owner-occupied rental flexibility, or multi-generational living options. This move-in-ready property represents a rare opportunity to own a well-maintained, extensively improved home in Fairhope. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
