556 Johnson Ave
Welcome to the Fairhope lifestyle at its very best. Just blocks from downtown, this 2007 Craftsman cottage puts you squarely in the heart of the golf-cart-and-flip-flops rhythm that makes Fairhope one of the most beloved small towns on the Gulf Coast. Cruise to the bluff for sunset over Mobile Bay, glide down to French Quarter for coffee and pastries, or park the cart curbside for Friday night Live at Five concerts on the lawn. Four bedrooms, three full baths, and 2,279 square feet of thoughtfully finished living space — Craftsman character with a metal roof, hardboard exterior, and warm wood, tile, and carpet floors throughout. The gas kitchen is ready for weekend entertaining, the covered patio invites slow mornings and long evenings, and six off-street parking spots welcome every friend you have. Walk to the Library, Post Office, boutique shopping, farm-to-table restaurants, art walks, and the Fairhope Pier. Zoned for the top-rated Fairhope West / Fairhope Middle / Fairhope High schools, and with no HOA restrictions plus long-term rental flexibility, this is a rare chance to plant roots — or invest — in the address everyone on the Eastern Shore is talking about. Come live the Fairhope life. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
