All bathtubs and showers on the main floor also have the lights built into them because they are enclosed.

The 19 1/2 x 17 living room size on this main floor has a built-in corner gas fireplace, and you will also find two long hallways on the main floor.

In the kitchen, measuring 23 1/2 x 14, are durable Corian counters and custom made cabinets. There is an island with two sinks, one being a vegetable sink, and both being molded into the counter tops. The flooring in the kitchen, entrance hall and master bath is ceramic. Another wonderful kitchen amenity is the Wolf commercial stove. The 48″ stove  has a 22″ griddle, two ovens, one is convection, four burners with auto re-light, two heat lamps with two warming shelves and a stainless commercial hood to match. This beautiful range alone,the stove of choice for this home, is valued at over $10,000 due to its construction having specific insulation for safety reasons.
Also in this middle floor kitchen is a dishwasher and a side by side refrigerator with the freezer on bottom.

The bedrooms are very nice-sized, each with large closets and their own baths. The master bedroom measures a spacious 15×17. This bedroom boasts an L shaped closet, measuring approximately 6×14 and also the bath measuring 6×13.
Bedroom #2 is 13 1/2 x 11 1/2  with a 6×10 closet and a 5×10 bath.
Bedroom #3 is 15 1/2 x 13 1/2 with an 8×10 closet and a 5×10 bath.

The bottom floor of the home is a very nice partially finished basement. On this level, you will find a dining room, living room, school room and bedroom. It also has an unfinished kitchen area with walls and flooring in, but lacking all of the cabinets. The majority of the floors in the basement are hardwood with just the school room and bedroom being shag carpet.  What makes the basement special is that the walls were poured (not block like most) by a company who builds bridges so they are built really well and don’t leak so the basement can be used as living space without the fear of leaking. The basement walls were poured to a thickness of 12″, were reinforced with rebar and sealed and waterproofed in order to insure there is no leakage. In the basement is also a safe room in the back corner with the same specifications as the walls. It measures at 8′x8′.

The basement does contain an unfinished space, approximately a 40′x14′ area. This is the area in which the safe room is located.

Outside of the basement, you will find a poured porch the length of the house.

Moving to the top floor, we find two bedrooms, a sitting area and a full bath and also an unfinished room. This would make a lovely bedroom or a study.
All the flooring upstairs is hardwood.

The exterior construction of the of the home is built stronger than the usual home, as they construction consists of  2×6 rather than the usual 2×4. The floors are 2×12. There are two additional porches which run almost the length of the house and are 8′x69′.

Outside, there is a little building or shop that measures approximately 12×16 with an 8×16 porch. This building was hand constructed using wood from the property. It was made to look antiqued ,using the wood to make a board and batten rough cut siding on it.

This property is located dead center of the state, right in between to major cities, Montgomery and Birmingham. It is approximately 45 minutes from Birmingham and 30 minutes from Montgomery. Though rural, this county is not too far from the two big cities both with airports, military base, one of the top hospitals in the country located in Birmingham, shopping and city life are not far away.
