This single-story 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom residence offers a thoughtfully designed open-concept layout that seamlessly connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas. The kitchen is a standout feature, equipped with stainless steel appliances—including a range, microwave, and dishwasher—complemented by rich walnut-toned lower cabinetry, crisp white upper cabinets, a subway tile backsplash, and light quartz countertops. Pendant lighting adds a modern touch above the kitchen peninsula, which also functions as a convenient breakfast bar. The adjacent dining area is defined by light wood-look flooring and tall walls adorned with large-scale framed artwork. The living room receives generous natural light through oversized windows dressed with patterned drapes, and features a ceiling fan and ample space for comfortable furnishings. The bedroom is carpeted and well-lit by a large window with outdoor views, offering a tranquil retreat. A second bedroom variation showcases a bold geometric accent wall for added character. The bathroom is finished with large-format tile flooring, a glass-enclosed shower with tile surround, and access to a walk-in closet area, completing this stylish and functional residence.

Five Points South wraps around the University of Alabama at Birmingham with the UAB Campus Green sitting in the heart of the neighborhood. The south end of the neighborhood contains the Vulcan Park and Museum and the Vulcan Walking Trail, while the north end contains Railroad Park Foundation and Regions Field. Five Points South is a historic district that was founded in 1893. It is considered the city’s food hub and is home to top restaurants like Bottega and Highlands Bar and Grill – winner of the James Beard Award.
As Birmingham’s entertainment district, Five Points South provides more than historic architecture, great food, and an energetic student vibe. You’ll also discover a variety of shops, coffee houses, the Abroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Arts, and a variety of festivals and events. Five Points South is very walkable and students often walk to and from class. Be sure to stop by the Storyteller fountain, created by local artist Frank Fleming.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
