Property Description
A rare grandfathered detached garage loft sets this Birmingham property apart, with plumbing and electrical already in place and exceptional potential for future finished space. Now offered at a new price, this is an opportunity to make a remarkably well-built home your own in a prime Birmingham location. Meticulously maintained by its original owner since its 2005 construction, the residence reflects quality craftsmanship, thoughtful engineering, and structural integrity throughout. Four levels of living space offer flexibility for both everyday life and evolving needs, including a finished third floor with two versatile bonus rooms ideal for a home office, fitness space, media room, playroom, or guest accommodations. Three-zone HVAC adds efficiency throughout the home. Located just minutes from downtown Birmingham and within the Birmingham School District, the property brings together a desirable location, solid construction, and possibilities that are increasingly difficult to replicate. With its quality construction, flexible spaces, and rare potential, this is an opportunity to bring your own vision and make it distinctly yours. Home is occupied.
