About this property

Charming 1930’s Cottage


This renovated 1930’s cottage has maintained all of its historical character after a full refurbishment. The kitchen and baths have been updated by adding all new fixtures and new energy efficient appliances. The original doors and casing have been preserved along with the window casings. Bright white painted walls accent the gray flooring. Two bedrooms with high quality queen mattress await the weary traveler. For additional sleeping accommodations, the living room features a full size sofa sleeper. The dining room displays faulted ceiling and accommodates a table for six along with a service bar. This area can double as a work space. The large screened-in front porch features a vaulted ceiling and an outdoor fan. Barn doors open to the landscaped front yard. A BBQ grill , adjacent to the front porch, awaits the chef in the family. Outdoor diners can choose between the front screened in porch or the tree shaded back deck.

Just outside and turn left either on foot or biking and you are minutes from shopping, restaurants, groceries, pubs, the library, parks, pier and those famous Fairhope sunsets.

The cottage is a great place to work remotely. The bandwidth is between 60-100 mpbs.

Fairhope stop on our 5 week road trip
We had a wonderful time at the cottage, and in Fairhope. The location has great access to all of Fairhope, by foot, bicycle and/or car. For a couple with a dog, it was perfect.

Great Little Cottage!
We enjoyed 10 days at this clean and comfy cottage. Considering the age of this home, it has been very nicely updated! Unfortunately it was quite chilly during our stay and we were not able to enjoy the screen porch or the back deck. Only downside was traffic noise from an adjacent road. We enjoyed the close proximity to downtown Fairhope and the many great restaurants. We did not experience one lousy meal; Fairhope is definitely a foodie destination!

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with Fairhope when our daughter and her family moved here. In 2015, our first time to rent in Fairhope, we rented this cottage. In the following years, we rented numerous times. When we decided to buy our realtor showed us many houses that we thought were ok. Then this lil gem went on the market. When we pulled up to the circular driveway I had a suspicion that this would be the one. As we walked to the front door, my heart grew fonder. When the front door was opened and I walked in I knew this was going to be our lil place in Fairhope.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is off of Section Street which is the gateway to everything in Fairhope. You can walk or bike to restaurants, bars, shopping, the beach and pier. The house is surrounded by tress which provides privacy.
