If walls could talk, this 1903 Southern beauty would have stories to tell. Designed by legendary architect George B. Rogers famed for the Van Antwerp Building, the Egyptian-Revival Scottish Rite Temple, and so many of Mobile's most iconic landmarks, this home is both a piece of history and a potential showstopper for modern living.

Beyond its beauty, this home carries a legacy.
