Features we love: Birmingham’s most treasured masterpiece, The Wofford Villa, has been lovingly cared for over the years with modern updates. Its original details such as hand-carved doors, painted murals, original crests, and tray ceiling were all crafted in the 1920s by Italian artisans from Florence.
