Built in 1859

Located in Mobile’s Old Dauphin Way Historic District, on east corner of Dauphin and Common Streets, the distinctive Greek Revival home, with Italianate features, was originally built, in 1859, as a typical Carolina side-hall house. The handsome, but unpretentious, home received an addition, a side wing to the east, in 1890, increasing interior living space, as well as a porch. The original craftsmanship is exemplary; the framing is mortise and tenon with heavy pegged bracing. The carefully and beautifully preserved cypress and pine woodwork is a work of art! Large windows throughout the home allow light to flow; floors are of heart pine. The floor plan is gracious, comfortable and adaptable for today’s living. Downstairs includes a welcoming entry, large double parlors with operable pocket doors, an inviting den or library and large kitchen. Off of the library is an updated half bath, with adjoining space available to create a full bath. Upstairs are three large bedrooms, a bonus room, sun room, two full baths (one large with double vanities), and a laundry. There is plenty of storage on both levels. This home is also defined by its 850 sq. ft. of porches! There is a large wood deck at back. Please come and discover the remarkable possibilities of this home for yourself.
