About this property

Hearthside Haven | Avondale/Fenced Yard/King Bed

Tucked just minutes from the heart of Birmingham, Hearthside Haven invites you to slow down, settle in, and feel right at home. Whether you're here for a weekend getaway, a family visit, or a longer stay, this cozy retreat blends thoughtful comfort with everyday convenience—plus a fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for kids, pets, or simply enjoying a quiet moment outdoors.

Start your mornings with a cup of coffee on the classic Southern front porch, then step inside to a bright, welcoming space designed with comfort in mind. The living room offers plenty of seating, a large Roku Smart TV for movie nights, and a queen sleeper sofa for additional guests.

The home features three inviting bedrooms, all on one level:

A spacious king bedroom with soft lighting and a decorative (non-working) fireplace for added charm
A second bedroom with two full beds—perfect for families or groups
A third bedroom with a cozy queen bed tucked toward the back of the home

Two full bathrooms make getting ready easy, with one offering a shower/tub combo and the other a convenient walk-in shower.

The kitchen is fully equipped with modern touches and everything you need to cook and gather, whether you're preparing a quick breakfast or a full dinner. Out back, you’ll find the fully fenced yard along with a charcoal grill—ideal for laid-back evenings and casual cookouts.

You’ll have full access to the home, with easy self check-in via a digital lock. The property is just a short drive to downtown Birmingham, Avondale’s popular restaurants and breweries, and only minutes from the airport—making it a great home base for exploring the city.

A couple of things to note:

There are a few steps up to the front entrance
The fireplace is ornamental only
A nearby train line can occasionally be heard; most guests find it unobtrusive, but light sleepers may prefer to bring earplugs or a sound machine

For families traveling with little ones, a pack ’n play is available upon request.

Whether you're here to explore Birmingham or simply unwind, Hearthside Haven offers a comfortable, convenient stay with just the right touch of Southern charm.

This property is in an older neighborhood. The property could use a few upgrades but it worked perfectly for our stay. The neighborhood was quite, the porch was a great place to sit and enjoy morning coffee, the a/c was on point and it was really cool coming back from being outside in the heat. The host was available at the drop of a dime and assisted with any questions. The area was conveniently close to everything we needed. My only issue was that it was hard to read the numbers on the oven temperature as I did a lot of baking but I made it work by turning it up to 400 and working my way back down. Would I stay here again....yes!!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
Hi there!
I’m the owner and operator of a short-term rental business built around one simple goal: making guests feel right at home. I absolutely love what I do — especially designing spaces that are clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked for a five-star stay.

When I’m not hosting, you’ll find me spending time with my family, hanging out with my dogs, experimenting in the kitchen, or unwinding with a good video game. I’m all about the little details and genuinely enjoy helping people have the best stay possible.

Travel plays a big part in my life, too — from honeymooning in Iceland, to exploring Mexico, to visiting family in Orlando and Gulf Shores. I know what it feels like to have an amazing stay, and that’s exactly the experience I aim to deliver to every guest.

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m happy to help and excited to host you!
