The property features two large 36' x 110' pole barns, including one with a recently installed new roof, providing ample space for equipment, hay, vehicles, or workshop use. A 40' x 400' poultry house, equipped with gas heat and evaporative cooling, will be inactive at the time of sale and presents a unique opportunity for storage, livestock housing, or other agricultural uses. A 2001 16' x 80' two bed and two bath mobile home is sheltered beneath a protective pole barn cover, offering comfortable living accommodations while enjoying the surrounding acreage. The property is well-equipped with two working wells, county water service, power, and an 80-kW diesel generator, providing valuable utility and backup power capabilities. A portion of the acreage is already fenced for cattle, making it easy to continue livestock operations. With plenty of open space, the farm is equally suited for goats, horses, hobby farming, or creating a large garden. Whether you're seeking a productive farm, a self-sufficient homestead, or a quiet rural retreat, this property offers exceptional potential and country charm. ## Location - **Address:** 897 S Butler Springs Road, Forest Home, AL 36030 - **County:** Butler - **Coordinates:** 31.812788, -86.843283 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=31.812788,-86.843283 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Kent Mcnaughton - **Brokerage:** Saunders Real Estate - **Broker Phone:** 334-530-8258 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/897-S-Butler-Springs-Rd_Forest-Home_AL_36030_M95285-49972?f=listhub&s=NYSMLS&m=11858817&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f3600102192r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f3496908934r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f3605060371r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f3279318378r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f2394888663r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f1824843126r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f4032200745r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f1040684618r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f715179242r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f539052687r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f3108034667r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f3000014876r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f1855578578r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f4072175202r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f3130302870r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f4150509234r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f2527833000r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f2511963282r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f2402441731r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f2225442856r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f1152952759r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f1164465987r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f465563964r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f1460693021r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f1187931841r.jpg) ![897 S Butler Springs Road - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/7879332035d184adac711471b29030bdl-f661831519r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 11858817 | **Updated:** 2026-10-22 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 My State MLS.
