1168 Elmira Street

Discover the vibe that is distinctively Oakleigh Garden Historic District at 1168 Elmira St. Circa 1904, this architectural jewel was renovated and updated 3 years ago, honoring the original heart pine floors and beaded board walls from floor to ceiling, while kitchen and bath are the best in contemporary design. The kitchen features an abundance of cabinets and large center island with quartz surfaces and stainless appliances (refrigerator conveys). The bathroom features tile floors, sourced from Charles Phillips and hand-painted in France, which match the detailing around the fireplace, and an extra-large walk in shower. The redesign carved out enough space for a spacious walk-in closet and a laundry closet with salvaged, sliding barn doors ready for a stackable washer and dryer. A privacy fenced backyard has a storage shed for extra storage and roofing is multidimensional shingle. Oakleigh Garden District (OGD) is minutes away from Mobile’s Downtown business and entertainment districts and Interstate 10.. OGD has its own culture of arts and entertainment with fine dining at Hummingbird Way, live-music venues at Callahan’s Irish Social Club which hosts one of the biggest St Patty’s Day parties on the Gulf Coast, open air concerts at Washington Square and impromptu porch parties with neighbors often called “Sit and Sip”. The Mardi Gras parade route is just a few blocks away! Oakleigh is continuing to protect Mobile’s past with great efforts in historic preservation and urban redevelopment like no other historic district in Mobile. Make sure to check out this historic shotgun and the life style that is very much a part of this highly sought after neighborhood.
