Introducing The Cavalier House, a timeless estate and near-exact replica of the historic Gorgas House at the University of Alabama, meticulously restored by acclaimed architectural designer Dana Roberts Littleton. This architectural gem features a fully renovated kitchen with local Alabama White Marble, custom cabinetry, Z-Line appliances, and designer lighting from Arhaus & Restoration Hardware. Every bathroom has been exquisitely finished with marble, custom vanities, and hand-selected tile. The grounds offer a resort-style gunite pool, full pool house with bar & dog spa, and fenced pasture with a bespoke goat house for mini silky fainting goats. A 2-bedroom guest cottage is ready for your final touches. Gated entry, copper lanterns, and 100-year-old live oaks complete the setting. Smart home integration blends seamlessly with rich materials and craftsmanship. From its carefully preserved details to its modern comforts, this historic gem is a rare opportunity to own a legacy.
