Property Description
Known locally as "The Mardi Gras House" due to its vibrant colors and proximity to Mardi Gras festivities, this home is a truly stunning Victorian masterpiece. This three-story antebellum home was commissioned by Frank Petrinovich in 1899 as a boarding house, and the design by architect James Hutchinson showcases the iconic painted-lady style, part of a lineage contributing to Mobile's architectural legacy. This impressive home is nestled on a tree-lined street in downtown Mobile in walking distance to the Government Plaza, Civic Center, Convention Center, Mardi Gras Museum, several parks, and the downtown dining and entertainment district. The residence exudes historic charm while offering modern comforts and boast 5 full bedrooms with 5.5 bathrooms, including a full bath in the walk-up attic.
