About this property

Cozy One Bedroom Near Samford, UAB & Downtown Birmingham!

Welcome to Homewood! Enjoy a beautifully updated one bedroom in a quiet neighborhood with a convenient location near Samford, UAB, Brookwood Medical Center and downtown Birmingham. The comfortable space features a fully equipped kitchen, open living area, dining space with a workspace, queen bedroom and spacious attached bathroom. The Lakeshore Trail is just across the road, perfect for walking, jogging or biking.

This is a completely separate one bedroom apartment with its own private entrance. Guests can park in the back and walk directly into the apartment from the parking area. There is a small private sitting area just outside the entrance, as well as a shared courtyard at the front of the home that guests are welcome to enjoy.

The adjoining two bedroom apartment is also available to rent, making it a great option for larger groups who would like to stay together while still having separate spaces.

We live just a few minutes away and are happy to be available for any questions that you have. We also love giving suggestions of things to do in this wonderful city!

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! Just 5 minutes from Samford University and Brookwood Hospital, across the main street from the beautiful Lakeshore trail, 10 minutes to UAB hospital and downtown! Brookwood Mall and some world class restaurants are also within 5 minutes of the apartment!

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 isn’t a washer and dryer in this unit but there is a laundromat just a few minutes away, and if there happen to not be any guests staying in the two bedroom, you’re welcome to use the washer and dryer in that unit! The apartment is one of 4 units in a small building that resembles a house. There are two upper units and two lower units. This is a lower level unit but is completely above ground with windows throughout the apartment.
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.

Our cleaners inventory before and after each guest. Several items have recently gone missing. Guests will be charged for any missing items, including towels, blankets, silverware, etc.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, an ironing board, and a desk.

We were not able to stay at our reserved place. The host called us the day before and told us that the heat went out in the property we had reserved, and could not be fixed in time. However, the host owns other properties in Birmingham, and so gave us other options. We were satisfied with the replacement. The host gave us a refund on the price difference.Consequently, this five star rating is for the customer service, not for the property listed, since I cannot comment on that.
