Welcome to 264 McDonald Ave in beautiful Midtown Mobile. If you ever wanted to live in an historic home this is it! For all the history enthusiasts, this home was built in 1910 and is nestled on the corner in lovely Flo Claire. Flo Claire is a historic subdivision within the Leinkauf Historic District. This area was considered one of the first true Middle Class subdivisions in Mobile. McDonald Ave is a typical architectural designed street during the early 20th century with gated or fenced entrances and where the homes have raised brick foundations, deep porches and double entry doors. When you walk in you are immediately greeted with a grand foyer showcasing the beautiful stairwell and hardwood floors. To the left is the living room and yes, the original pocket doors are intact and work perfectly. Through the living room you will love having a sunroom which is perfect for your Orchids and Violets, or a great area for a playroom or a reading nook. The dining room is massive and can easily fit a table for 12, a buffet, a china cabinet as well as a curio shelf and maybe your grandmother's pie safe. The kitchen has been updated with cabinets, granite counter tops and you can easily access the side courtyard for fresh herbs from your mini garden or to sit and unwind after dinner. In true turn of the century fashion, the bedrooms are upstairs which lends to all of the main floor strictly used for living and entertaining. Finally the most charming aspect of the top floor is the traditional sleeping porch. Unlike the early, completely open and exposed sleeping porches, the home has windows all the way around which can be used for airflow and protection from the elements. You will fall in love with this Colonial Revival style and be able to put your own touches while enjoying the historical style. Buyer to verify all. Priced below Appraisal performed on 6/22/2025.
