Felder Avenue, Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

We don't usually feature homes under the $500,000 mark but real estate commenter Spectacular Bid drew my attention to today's modest charmer in Montgomery, Alabama. This home was designed by architect and furniture designer Bobby McAlpine whose work has been featured in many of the popular shelter magazines. This three-bedroom English country style home has had its magazine moments, appearing in Southern Accents, House & Garden and British House & Garden. The home adheres to the tenets of English style without giving off that faux-for-show impression that other English country style home can. It has a good mix of formal and casual elements providing both elegance and comfort. It can be yours for just $499,000 and is listed with Bess Jenkins.

The second home is on 7.68 acres and has a sun room and borders the parcel with the cabins. The equestrian facility, located between the two homes, has six large stalls, an office and a living area. The auction terms are ten percent down with closing in 30 days.More details are available on www.albertburney.com.
