This completely remodeled home in historic St. Elmo is located on an amazing block of Alabama Avenue, and is perfect for families and entertaining.

This home is a historic gem in St. Elmo, and we enjoyed restoring its beauty, while we carefully worked to maintain its original integrity, incorporating plenty of storage, closet space, and modern design. We are especially thrilled with the outdoor kitchen, which is fully functional and added on as part of our vision for the home. Hiking trails, playground and park are all just a couple of blocks away. Osteen Construction is owned and operated by a husband and wife team who live in and love St. Elmo, and their passion for the neighborhood shines through in their work.
