## Description

### Agent Description
Situated on 17.9 level, usable acres in the Corner Community of Blount County, this property is anchored by a 55x80 commercial-capable workshop featuring 19-foot ceilings, concrete flooring, office space, full bath, water, three-phase power, and dedicated drive access designed to accommodate independent operations — built to support big equipment, business operations, or agriculture. The Georgian-style full brick home reflects enduring craftsmanship, constructed with a concrete block foundation and a full-length beam system that reinforces the home’s structural integrity throughout. Meticulously maintained, the home offers main-level living with a spacious primary suite, private upstairs ensuites, and a separate-entry basement apartment ideal for generational living.  Open pasture and a private pond complete this well-built property designed for longevity and real-world use.  Conveniently located approximately 40 minutes to Birmingham, 30 minutes to Cullman, and 1 hour to Huntsville.
