Stylish and cozy 2 bedroom- available for short term or longer term rental! Less than five minutes from Samford and Brookwood Hospital, 10 minutes from UAB/ downtown.

The master bedroom is spacious with a queen bed and desk area. The second bedroom has two comfortable twin beds, and both bedrooms have large closets.

This is a lower level apartment in a small 4 unit brick building that more resembles a house in a lovely and safe residential area with beautiful homes. You enter from the back parking area- each room of the apartment has a small daylight window.

The neighborhood is safe, quaint and quiet. It’s a residential area with cute homes and great neighbors. The home is just 2 minutes from the interstate but you would never know the highway is so close. The apartment is so conveniently located without the chaos of a busy street!

Public transportation is not widely available in Birmingham but Uber and Lyft are easy to use. The building is a small 4 unit building with a small parking area in the back of the building where you have one assigned space to park. There is also street parking in front of the home if you have more than one car.
There will be a $500 cleaning fee for smoking of any kind in the home.

Please be respectful of the other tenants in the building. Loud noise, parties or disturbing the other tenants won’t be tolerated.

Great property

We enjoyed the proximity to Samford University. It's in a neighborhood of mixed single family and multi-unit homes. Very unique to me. We appreciated the dedicated parking places and quiet neighborhood.
