About this home

Known as The Gingerbread House, this charming Crestwood cottage is full of storybook appeal and timeless character. From original wood doors and vintage glass knobs to its inviting curb appeal, it’s the kind of home that makes passersby slow down for a second look. Major updates were completed in 2014, including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and a gas water heater. The home was refreshed with interior and exterior paint in 2021, and a new microwave and dishwasher were added in 2025. A private driveway offers the convenience of off-street parking—an added bonus in this sought-after neighborhood. Offered as is at a compelling new price, this is a great opportunity for buyers who appreciate the charm of an older home and want to make it their own over time. Whether you're seeking a first home, investment, or a place with personality, The Gingerbread House is a standout. Located minutes from Avondale, UAB, downtown Birmingham, parks, dining, and shopping.
