As you drive down the mile-long, tree-lined, private drive to this amazing Antebellum house and exquisite Equestrian Complex you might just think you’ve found perfection. Standing at the foot of the Appalachian Mountain ridge on 900 tree-spotted acres is a 17,000 square foot, four-story manor, inspired by the historic Melrose Plantation. It has a wonderful sense of grandeur but with enough charm and intimacy to achieve the peace and harmony for a family or for elegant entertaining. All of the formal rooms on the main floor boast 14’ high ceilings, heart pine floors and detailed millwork. Other areas of the home include a personal kitchen, an expansive caterer’s kitchen, five bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a complete spa, sauna and exercise room, media and billiards rooms, and a hydraulic elevator if the majestic 3-story staircase is more than you choose to climb. Outside is a lovely in-ground pool complete with gardens and a pool house, flanked by twin two-story carriage houses, incorporating two complete guest apartments. The Equestrian Complex rivals the main house in grandeur and style, along with functionality, luxury, and attention to detail. There are three barns, housing fifty stalls, tack rooms, offices, conference rooms, apartments and veterinary/laboratory facilities, all located behind a gated entry. An awe-inspiring 39,000 square-foot indoor arena complex boasts bleachers, a 3-ft deep sand floor and watering system for dust control - just perfect for competitions, clinics, or guest trainers. Multiple paddocks, a 120’ round pen, equipment sheds and hay barns, and numerous outbuildings supply everything needed to keep this a turn-key equestrian farming operation. To compliment the main house and the Equestrian Complex there is a three-bedroom Manager’s home with a pool and a three-car garage that overlooks a beautiful pond. Trainers and caretakers have their choice of residences as well, amongst four additional homes on the property. Just less than an hour outside of Birmingham, AL, this tranquil and private estate offers the discriminating buyer the opportunity to experience ownership in a fabulous equestrian estate, the beauty of nature, and the comfort of a warm and inviting home.
