About this home

If you've been looking for a place where you can truly spread out, breathe deep, and live a little slower, this 61-acre farm at the base of Starr Mountain in Etowah might be just what you've had in mind. It's quiet out here--no homes or roads in sight--just rolling land, trees, and the kind of views you never get tired of. The home is a solid, all-brick build from 2009 with over 4,500 square feet, and it was clearly made for real living. Big front and back porches give you plenty of space to gather with family and friends or just sit a spell and take in the mountains. Inside, the main living area is wide open with tall cathedral ceilings, lots of windows, and a wood-burning stove set into a beautiful stone chimney that makes the whole place feel warm and inviting. French doors lead right out to the back porch. All the bedrooms are on the main level, which makes day-to-day living easy. The primary suite is set off on its own for a little extra privacy and has a huge walk-in closet, porch access, and views out every window. The breakfast area is something special--it's bumped out so you can sit and enjoy a full 180-degree view of the mountain while you eat. There's also a proper dining room that'll handle a big table when the whole crew comes over. Upstairs gives you about 1,300 square feet of extra space with three large rooms you can use however you need--office, workout space, guest rooms, or a mix of all three. There's a balcony that looks down over the living room, and the upstairs bathroom is bigger than most--double vanities, chandeliers, and a large walk-in shower with two shower heads. Downstairs, you've got another 1,100+ square feet that's open and ready for whatever you want to turn it into. Outside is where this place really shines. The yard around the house is fully fenced, with a remote-controlled gate at the road, so your dogs can run without worry. There's a well-built chicken setup already in place--coop, nesting boxes, roosts, and an automatic door leading out to a secure run. The land itself is a good mix of open pasture and woods, with trails cut through it for riding or exploring, plus a year-round stream. There's a 48x34 barn with power, water, and concrete floor, a big loft for storage, and a long shed that's perfect for a camper, trailer, or equipment. You've got both city water and a well to choose from, a new roof, and a paved drive all the way in. No restrictions here--bring your animals, your equipment, your plans, and make it your own. This is the kind of place folks hold onto for generations.
