1163 Hwy 165 Fort Mitchell, AL 36856

Welcome to a place where land, legacy, and stewardship come together. This approximately 113-acre McCullough estate has been thoughtfully cared for over 30 yearsmanaged not just to look beautiful, but to provide, sustain, and invite a way of life that honors the outdoors.
As you enter the gated drive, tall pines and hardwoods guide you toward the center of the property. The land opens into rolling yard and pasture, anchored by a well-kept 3,800 sq ft home. From the front porch, you’ll watch deer and turkey drift through the hand-planted sawtooth oak grove, drawn in season after season by the acorns that have helped feed wildlife here for many years.
Behind the home, a canopy of mature water oaks creates a cool, shaded backdrop for quiet mornings, family gatherings, and children running barefoot through the grass. Steps away lies the spring-fed pond, clear and alive with bass and bream. A covered pier, a footbridge over an inlet, and a gazebo at the water’s edge make it a perfect place for sunrise coffee, evening fires, or simple stillness.
Just beyond, a vineyard of muscadine and scuppernong vines, blueberry bushes, and fruit trees such as pear and peach offers seasonal harvests and the satisfaction of tending what nourishes you. The approx. 10-acre fenced inner yard keeps pets close and unwanted wildlife at the edges where they belong.
As you open the gate to leave the fenced yard, the land transitions into its wilder character. Here, the hunter and land steward will find their element: a beaver pond awaiting migrating ducks, well-maintained shooting lanes, three additional sawtooth groves, a longleaf pine stand that has been properly burned, a roughly 1-acre pump-fed duck impoundment, and over half a mile of Ihagee Creek frontage set among mature hardwood bottoms.
This is land that providestimber, wildlife, water, food, and space to breathe.
A place to raise a family, to retreat, to gather, to pass down.
This isn’t just acreage.
It’s a way of life.
