Known as The Gingerbread House, this beloved Crestwood cottage is full of storybook charm and timeless character. The 3-bedroom home features original wood doors, glass knobs, and curb appeal that makes people slow down as they pass by. Major system updates were completed in 2014, including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and a gas water heater. The interior and exterior were refreshed with new paint in 2021, and brand-new microwave and dishwasher were added in 2025. A private driveway provides rare off-street parking, and the layout offers a wonderful canvas for personal touches while preserving the home’s vintage soul. Perfectly positioned just minutes from Avondale, UAB, and downtown Birmingham, this Crestwood classic offers warmth, history, and opportunity in one charming package.
