Property Description
Historically known as the Inge House and now called The Driskell, this distinguished Government Street landmark represents a rare opportunity to steward one of Mobile's most recognizable historic residences. Designed circa 1911 by prominent Mobile architect George B. Rogers for attorney and civic leader Francis J. Inge, the property reflects the architectural ambition and social prominence of early 20th-century Mobile. Set on beautifully scaled grounds within the Old Dauphin Way Historic District (National Register of Historic Places), the home is celebrated for its Spanish/Mediterranean-inspired design, grand proportions, and exceptional entertaining spaces' elements that have hosted generations of memorable gatherings. Known in recent years as The Driskell, the property continues its legacy as a place of hospitality and social connection, offering remarkable flexibility as a private estate, legacy residence, or distinctive venue for curated events (subject to zoning and approvals). The property also includes a detached double-car garage. Homes of this architectural pedigree, provenance, and presence on Government Street are seldom offered making this a compelling opportunity for the buyer who values history, legacy, and distinction. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
