MidtownMidCenturyModern, FREE golfcart, NEXT to bay and hospital, 4bds, 2baths

This property is a mid-century modern home built in the 1960's that has been renovated (interior and exterior) from top to bottom over the past eight months and is located in a quiet residential neighborhood directly across the street from the main hospital in the area, Thomas Hospital and within a mile of the exact center of downtown Fairhope. A six-passenger golf cart is included for your 5 minute travel to all the downtown activities. In addition to the three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and office area, the living space is open with floor to ceiling sliding glass doors. The kitchen is stocked with every item necessary for gourmet cooks (including spices) giving dinner parties; the bedrooms each have a television, king size bed and high quality linens; the bathrooms are stocked with all items for personal hygiene, plush towels and even color coordinated toilet tissue, and the office is move-in ready for work at home (including sharpened #2 pencils). Full laundry room with washer, electric dryer, and adequate storage. Quality art is prominently displayed in all rooms (your hosts are art collectors, as well as arts of note). Among the selected pieces are works by Phill Evans, Michael Banks, Nall, Bruce Larson, Tres Taylor, Bruce Beasley, et.al. Indoor living plants are abundant to keeping the air quality pristine (along with a certified space technology air scrubber attached to the HVAC system). All the furniture was hand-picked to reflect a midcentury vibe and the kitchen cabinetry was made on site utilizing locally lumbered and milled cedar.

The exterior landscaping is totally fenced with low voltage lighting and was professionally designed with 52 different botanical plant species (including a butterfly/bee garden). To conserve water the plants are on a drip irrigation system with timers. The backyard is almost totally shaded from the canopy of huge, lighted, beautiful heritage oak tree (third largest in all of Fairhope proper). The two driveways provide parking for six cars. We include an electric vehicle charging station and a transfer switch for a generator in case of power outages. The side yard includes a full size, lighted, bocce/petanque/corn hole court with spectator seating and giant judge's chair. There are large covered decks and lanai (front and back) to provide relaxation and includes: fully equipped outdoor kitchen; hot tub/spa to die in; small sip n' dip pool with sheer descent, lighted waterfall; four burner bbq grill; propane fueled pizza oven that heats to 900 degrees in five minutes; and commercial type ice cream maker. We also include tree swings, porch swings, walking path, outdoor sculptures, water features, transfer switch for generator in case of power outages, and a fire pit for those chilly winter days.

During your stay at this vacation home, you're just a quick walk from Fresenius Medical Care at Thomas Hospital. A spa tub is available. Enjoy your stay with amenities like a kitchen and 2 bathrooms in the vacation home.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washing machine, and 2 bathrooms

  • Steps from Fresenius Medical Care at Thomas Hospital and 3 minutes by foot from Fairhope Avenue

The master bath pictures online did not indicate there was a wadding pool you had to step into to take a shower. Owner should consider updates & also not everyone that rents is less than 60…….the property did not consider senior citizens.

We loved it!
We were in town for a wedding and had the best time! The house was perfect for our group...three families and a toddler. Lots of room to spread out and enjoy the space. The location couldn't be better either. The outside courtyard is amazing. Just wish we'd had more time to hang out. We took the golf cart downtown a couple of times and loved the convenience of that. The property manager was so kind and responsive. The only "negative" to this house is the showers don't drain super well, but not sure that's a problem that can be fixed in an older home. Not a deal breaker!

Great place to stay!
This house was perfect for our group of 5 friends visiting Fairhope for the first time. We especially enjoyed the outdoor living spaces, grand live oak in the back yard, inflatable hot tub, and refreshing dip tank. The house is beautifully decorated and the king beds are very comfortable. There is an inflatable twin in the office that is adequate. The golf cart made it easy and fun to get around town. Gulf Shores is only 50 minutes away for a day trip to the beach. Tarrel was there to greet us on arrival and was an attentive host. His great sense of humor was a bonus! We would highly recommend staying here when you visit Fairhope.

This property was great ~ beautifully decorated, everything we needed to cook, a super fun back yard, close enough to walk to town but still had a golf cart, so we could go to the grocery store as well. And Tarrel was a fantastic host!! Perfect place to stay!

Tarrel's home in Fairhope is absolutely beautiful. Well-equipped, tastefully furnished and immaculately clean. The garden area is fantastic. Plus, it's very convenient to the charming downtown Fairhope area. We couldn't have asked for a nicer place to stay.

We had a lovely stay and really enjoyed the provided amenities. We used the dunk tank, hot tub and golf cart everyday. We enjoyed making homemade pizza in the pizza oven. This house has so much to see and do. If you plan on having some down time and staying in I highly recommend this property.

Best stay ever!
From the very beginning, after I booked the vacation rental, the host contacted me. We had an open line of communication from the very beginning. He even agreed to let me have my niece's two year old birthday party there, but we decided on the park down the street instead. He even dropped off cookies for the birthday. The property was absolutely beautiful and peaceful, which was a beautiful surprise in the middle of town. The landscaping was immaculate. Having the golf cart to get around was an awesome perk. There was the occasional siren but was not even an issue. The beds were comfortable, the artwork splendid. There is just so many good things that I can say about this property. I would love to stay here again but without my kids. Not that my kids were bad, but I wanted to sit back and enjoy the tranquil beauty around me.

Beautiful property in Fairhope
We booked a trip to be close to attractions, but a little off the beaten path and this house did not disappoint! Beautifully remodeled in Mid Century style with all the modern amenities needed for a great stay. Occasional ambulance noise from the hospital across the street, but maybe only three or four times during the course of our week. Very close to the pier for premium sunset watching. Would definitely recommend!

So fun!
The house and property were great. Very clean & just like the description and pictures. Downtown, restaurants, & shopping are all a short golf cart ride away. I’ve stayed in lots of VRBO properties over the years & the owner of this one has been the best so far! From the personalized welcome sign to coming by & making sure we had everything we needed and didn’t have any questions, to leaving Easter eggs for our kids - the personal touches were amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful Stay
The house was ideal for our stay. All the outdoor space was amazing, plenty of room to sit and relax on the patio or in the hot tub. Inside was beautifully decorated and perfect for the 4 of us and with a 3rd bedroom could have fit another couple easily. Location was great, it was a short walk to the local craft brewery, a wonderful coffeeshop / bakery that served breakfast and lunch plus other stores and grocery. Downtown Fairhope was just over a mile away, we walked into town a couple of times to enjoy the many restaurants and shopping. Tarrel was an excellent host. He was easy to communicate with and responded to inquiries very quickly. He checked in occasionally to see if we had any questions. We will stay at this property again if we get back to the area.

Property was as described and even exceeded expectation—like staying at an art gallery with plenty of enjoyable outdoor space. Try ALL the porches and swings! Decor and lighting were high-class and the kitchen was fully stocked. Spacious closets and cloud-like bedding. Shops and dining (and a zillion azaleas) were highly accessible via the golf cart! Property manager just a text away.
