Property description
An extraordinary opportunity to build something truly one-of-a-kind in the heart of Birmingham. One of the last remaining buildable properties on coveted Willits Street, this exceptional site offers a combination of attributes rarely found anywhere in Birmingham: an elevated setting with unobstructed views of the Rouge River and Birmingham Nature Trail, while being just steps from downtown’s acclaimed restaurants, shopping and vibrant city life. Set above the river and surrounded by mature trees and nature, the property offers a remarkable sense of privacy and tranquility while being just moments from everything downtown Birmingham has to offer. This rare combination of a walkable downtown location and an expansive natural setting is what makes this property truly special. Adding to its rarity, 504 Willits is also currently available for purchase, creating an extraordinary opportunity to combine the two properties and create an estate-sized homesite in the heart of downtown Birmingham. Interested parties are encouraged to contact the Listing Agent for details regarding the potential combination of the properties. For those seeking the ultimate downtown retreat, the two properties could offer the ability to build a substantial estate home on one lot and a private pool and poolhouse on the other, subject to applicable zoning and approvals. Plans have been developed for the property and are available for review, providing a vision for what can be created on this exceptional site. Buyers may elect to work with AG Design & Build to bring the vision to life or engage their own architect, builder and design team.
