Spring Street

This young Mountain Brook couple knew their Crestline fixer-upper would be a long-term project. But after welcoming their first child, it became clear the house needed more than a renovation—it needed a full rebuild. With baby number two on the way and thoughtful architectural plans in hand, they were ready to say goodbye to their starter home and hello to their custom-built forever home.

The exterior was designed with charm and curb appeal in mind. Textured “paper cut” brick with over-squeezed mortar adds warmth and character, while a front porch fireplace—faced with locally sourced Peacock Pavers—creates a cozy, family-friendly gathering space. A recessed porch and open-air carport preserve the facade’s openness, complemented by cedar shake roofing and timber corbels that reflect classic craftsmanship.

A white oak Dutch door leads into a light-filled double-height foyer. Wide-plank oak flooring continues throughout, guiding you under a barrel-vaulted ceiling and into the heart of the home: a modern custom kitchen with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, a bespoke arched range hood, and hand-selected, refined finishes. A nearby wet bar adds convenience and style, perfect for winding down at the end of the day.

The primary suite was designed with a spa-like feel, featuring a marble-topped double vanity, a private water closet, and a zero-entry shower and soaking tub enclosed in marble and vertical Zellige tile. Unlacquered brass fixtures add timeless elegance.

With ample space upstairs for future needs and every detail considered, this Mountain Brook new construction home reflects a perfect blend of modern comfort, thoughtful design, and lasting quality—crafted by a dedicated design-build team serving Birmingham’s most sought-after suburbs, including Homewood, Mountain Brook, and Vestavia Hills.
