The property is named “Longview” and the moment you crest over the ridge at the top of the driveway, you will understand the name. It has the most incredible view you can imagine, truly a premium place to build a home or mountain getaway cabin. There are numerous locations you could choose to build your dream home. Currently, there is a, well equipped, mobile home located in a perfect location to take advantage of the panoramic views. It is a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom with an open living room/kitchen area. From the porch, your gaze well cast out over Weiss Lake to the west. You will see Hog Island, Poodle Island, Round Mountain, Lookout Mountain and Weisner Mountain in the distance, along with many other landmarks. It’s a place of serenity, and peaceful natural beauty. The asphalt driveway is gated and located on a dead-end road, so there is not much traffic, very private with excellent access. The timber is primarily mature hardwoods and has not been cut in generations. There is a UTV trail on the ridgetop taking you back deeper into the tract where there are 3 wildlife food plots. It is very common to see deer, turkeys and all sorts of wildlife as you ride or walk the trails. A small pond is located down in one of the main valleys, and a mountain stream. The variety of tree and shrub species is incredible, with oaks, hickories, pines and maples in the over-story, dogwoods, native azaleas and sparkleberry in the mid-story and understory, loaded with ferns, hydrangeas and various perennials. There are migratory birds that are frequent visitors but a very cool feature of the property is an active bald eagle nest! The owners have monitored it for years and have seen several success eaglets raised over the years, and check out photos to see some excellent eagle shots. The highest point on the property has a fire pit and picnic table, where you can camp, stargaze or just relax and cook a meal over the fire with friends. This general area of Alabama has excellent combinations of mountains and lakes and rivers and many things to do for the person that loves the outdoors. The mouth of Little River is located directly below this tract and Weiss Lake is a 35,000 plus acre public lake that has tremendous fishing and boating opportunities. If you have closed your eyes and envisioned a place where you could have an amazing view every day when you wake up and enjoying sunsets in the evenings, over a large water view this is the one that will make it a reality. Shown by appointment only, please give me a call to set up your private showing and we will go up and see Longview.
