From its elevated setting along the coveted bluff side of Dolly Ridge, 2213 Hidden Ridge Circle takes in sweeping, southern-facing views across the valley below. Set in Vestavia Hills, the residence balances privacy with a front-row seat to sunrises and sunsets framed by an uninterrupted, tree-lined horizon. Arrival is marked by a grand brick paver drive and three attached garages, including two that are heated and cooled. Out back, the scale shifts to true outdoor living: an expansive covered veranda sits above a brick-arched walkout level, with a pool, an elevated sport court, and stone terracing stepping into the landscape. Inside, multi-level entertaining defines the flow, anchored by a kitchen equipped with Sub-Zero and Miele appliances—designed for gatherings that move easily from view to veranda and back again.

Set on 26+ acres in Coffee Springs, this multi-decade property reads like a small, private compound, with an electric-gated entry and 8 fenced acres for added separation and ease. The main residence offers three bedrooms and four bathrooms, while three guest homes extend the sense of hospitality—most notably a 200+ year old hand-hewn log cabin brought from Kentucky, rich with history and texture. A large workshop/studio supports creative work or hands-on projects, and two stone fire pits anchor outdoor evenings under the open sky. When you want a change of pace, Enterprise is the closest town, with a revitalized Main Street, big box stores, medical care, a hospital, and an airport. To the south, Florida’s 30A beach communities sit 72 miles away, promising occasional coastal escapes.

Those views extend to a screened porch with its own fireplace, looking out to the large oak trees. A huge breakfast area connects to a gourmet kitchen appointed with a stainless gas cooktop, dishwasher, built-in double oven, icemaker, microwave, refrigerator, and a generous pantry. Downstairs also features a large laundry, office, and a primary suite, while additional bedrooms offer en-suite baths; upstairs, a bedroom/office includes a half bath.

Rising above Huntsville on Green Mountain, this custom brick retreat balances privacy with everyday convenience, set on 2.8 acres of mature trees.

A separate dining room lends itself to more formal evenings. The primary suite feels intentionally generous, featuring a custom glass shower, spa tub, and plenty of closet space. With four bedrooms plus two bonus rooms, there’s flexibility for work, hobbies, or guests. Outdoors, a deck tucked beneath a leafy canopy invites slow mornings, and a two-zone swim spa offers space for laps or effortless relaxation—an idyllic retreat that still keeps dining and shopping close.

Three additional bedrooms, two full baths, and a dedicated laundry room complete the upper level.
