About This Home

As of February 2025

UPDATE: property now has new easement to build a private drive off of Weatherly Club Drive! This stunning property near ballantrae on 70 acres. The custom built timber framed home peers out over the private lake which is one of the most serene and peaceful settings you will find, especially within a 25 minute drive to downtown Birmingham. If you're looking for a home and land that is essentially your oyster, you have found it in this place. This custom home features mostly main level living, ample space, plus all the wood was sourced across the southeast to build this home. The walls are fully insulated, the doors and windows are the best quality that can be found and the craftsmanship is second to none. Plus, there's a massive loft that has unlimited potential. Outside, you can fish, hunt, ride, hike, and explore. There's room for waterfront home expansion for more custom homes to be built and the acreage adjoins ballantrae pkwy for possible development if desired.
