Tucked into the hills with a small-town feel
Originally established on the crossroads of ancient Native American paths in the center of Alabama, Leeds today spreads across three counties: Jefferson, Shelby, and St. Clair. Leeds is tucked into a landscape of rolling green hills and features spots with dense tree coverage, grassy fields and several winding waterways. “Leeds is a small city with a small-town feel,” says Andy Watkins, broker and owner of Bob Watkins Realty. “It’s surrounded by bigger cities, so you can get to shopping and restaurants in 10 minutes from any direction.”
