For the first time in over 90 years, one of Battles Wharf’s most iconic bayfront estates is being offered for sale—a truly rare and remarkable property consisting of 2.43 acres steeped in history, charm, and coastal beauty. This historic cottage, built in 1903, originally served as guest homes for one of Fairhope’s original waterfront hotel, a cornerstone of the area’s early resort era. Thoughtfully updated over time, this 3-bedroom, 1 bath cottage with soaring 12+ foot ceilings, original hardwood floors, cozy den, and a large screened-in porch is perfect for enjoying golden-hour breezes. The home offers approximately 2, 454 square feet and sits on 80 feet of bay frontage, complete with a private pier, boathouse, boat lift, and bulkhead—ideal for sunset cruises or casting a line just steps from your porch. Whether you're envisioning a multi-generational family retreat, a private compound, or a place to pass down through the decades, this offering is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a true piece of Battles Wharf history.
