1187 Lower Birmingham Road Welcome home to Southern living at its finest! Set on 2.5 BEAUTIFULLY LANDSCAPED ACRES in a highly desirable area, this distinctive home offers a rare combination of privacy, character, and convenience. From the moment you arrive, the EQUESTRIAN-STYLE WOOD FENCING, GATED DRIVEWAY, MATURE TREES, AND GORGEOUS LANDSCAPING create a picturesque setting that feels a world away-yet shopping, dining, groceries, gyms, medical facilities, and churches are all just minutes away. Best of all, there's NO HOA! Inside, timeless character continues with BEAUTIFUL HARDWOOD FLOOR THROUGHOUT, including recently refinished hardwoods on the main level. The great room is a true showstopper, featuring maple beams and DRAMATIC FLOOR TO CEILING WINDOWS that fill the space with natural light and frame peaceful views of the wooded backyard. The office is equally special, with custom solid mahogany cabinetry adding warmth and craftsmanship rarely found in newer homes. The outdoor spaces are made to be enjoyed. Spend mornings with coffee on the screened porch, afternoons reading in a hammock beneath the trees, or weekends hosting friends and family for a backyard BBQ. With plenty of room to explore, play, and enjoy nature, the FENCED BACKYARD provides safety and security for pets and play, while the surrounding wooded acreage provides an incredible sense of privacy. The finished basement with a half bath offers flexible space for guests, recreation, or entertaining and includes a BOAT DOOR WITH ITS OWN ADDITIONAL DRIVEWAY AND ENTRANCE-perfect for storing a boat, recreational equipment, or additional vehicles. Major updates provide added peace of mind, including a NEW UPPER-LEVEL HVAC INSTALLED JULY 2026, A WATER HEATER APPROXIMATELY 3 YEARS OLD, AND A ROOF APPROXIMATELY 4 YEARS OLD. Surrounded by spacious wooded properties and scenic horse farms, this is more than a home-it's a chance to enjoy the space, privacy, and unmistakable Southern charm that have become increasingly hard to find, without giving up everyday convenience.
