3 BR Charming Cottage in Fairhope, steps from downtown and the Mobile Bay
This recently renovated 3 bedroom, 2 bath cottage is located in the heart of beautiful Fairhope, in the sought after Fruit and Nut District. The 1,695 sq ft cottage is within walking distance of the Mobile Bay and Fairhope Pier, as well as restaurants, shops, antique galleries and other attractions in Downtown Fairhope. The house sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on a wooded, spacious lot. Upon entering the cottage from the charming front porch, you walk through the dining room to an open floor plan which features the main living area, kitchen and sun-room. The main living area has all new furnishings and provides a comfortable place to enjoy time with family and friends. Adjacent to the living area is a galley kitchen (updated June 2022 with marble countertops) and is fully equipped for all cooking needs with stainless steel appliances and a dishwasher. A split-brick floored sun-room, also next to the main living area, provides guests with an additional place to relax, read or drink their morning coffee. The house has 3 bedrooms (1 King, 1 Queen, 2 Twins) and 2 full bathrooms and comfortably sleeps up to 6 people. Both bathrooms were completely renovated in 2020. The master features a large, walk-in shower and the guest bathroom has a deep, soaking tub. The fully fenced-in cottage also has cable, WiFi, a full laundry room and a covered carport. The cottage is smoke-free and allows small pets with a refundable deposit.

About the host
Hosted by Rebecca Strell Roberts
Owners William and Vickie Strell split their time between Murrells Inlet, South Carolina and Fairhope, Alabama. The couple has been married for 44 years and have two children and two grandchildren. They love to travel and have been all over the world, but are proud to say one of their favorite destinations is charming Fairhope, Alabama.
Why they chose this property
The Strells purchased The Deferriet Cottage in 2017 to be closer to their two young grandchildren. They spent six months renovating the cottage from the ground up. William and Vickie loved how quiet and serene the property is while also being within walking distance of both the Mobile Bay and downtown Fairhope shops and restaurants.
