Step into Southern serenity with this beautifully handcrafted home nestled on 24 +/- wooded acres in Jackson, Alabama. Overflowing with rustic charm and rich history, this one-of-a-kind estate is the perfect blend of old soul character and modern functionality. From the moment you turn down the private driveway, you're welcomed by mature pines, blooming azaleas, camellias, crape myrtles, irises, and a charming landscape that feels like a storybook escape. The large Southern-style wrap-around porch-with porch swings and peaceful views-sets the tone for slow mornings and sweet tea evenings. Inside, this home tells a story through every thoughtful detail. The sunken living room features a cozy wood-burning heater, a stunning 12-foot window framed by an old church pew bench, and 1774 hand-hewn beams salvaged from the original family homestead. Cypress wood from the Alabama River, black walnut mantels, and a flower window for indoor herbs add unique charm you won't find anywhere else. The kitchen offers abundant cabinet space with pull-outs and comes fully equipped with all appliances. Three bedrooms and two full baths are located downstairs, including a primary suite with private porch access and walls made of gorgeous cypress. Upstairs, you'll find the fourth bedroom and a massive storage room. Connected to the home by the carport is a game room with its own half bath-ideal as a guest house, teen retreat, or mother-in-law suite. The exterior patio leading out from the beautiful French doors was built using wood reclaimed from an old smokehouse, adding even more character and craftsmanship. The property is fully equipped with a fenced backyard, automatic gate, French drains, generator hookup, and underground utilities. The metal roof and gutters are only 15 years old. For the hobbyist or entrepreneur, this property is unmatched. It includes three workshops-one a 70-foot-long auto shop complete with 8-inch monorail eye beams, paint booth, oil/transmission bay, half bath, and more. There's even a separate power and water meter for the shop area and additional stalls for equipment or storage. Keep your classic car cozy in the insulated garage or dive into your next big project right at home. But that's not all-the property also includes a 3 bedroom, 2 bath 1997 mobile home that remains with the sale, offering potential for rental income or guest accommodations. And tucked within the acreage? A peaceful spring-fed trail with its own pump for drinking water-perfect for nature walks and quiet reflection. ⸻ This is more than a home-it's a place where stories are made and memories are rooted. |
