A beautiful five-bedroom, four bath home is for sale in Redland’s popular Brookwood development.

The home’s Southern Hills Ridge address places residents near both Redland Elementary School, and the future Redland Middle School, Realtor Stephanie Schulte said.

Fresh paint and new flooring in several rooms add to the home’s appeal.

“Brookwood is a wooded community nestled at the southernmost tip of the Appalachian Mountains,” Schulte said. “Brookwood offers unique mountain views. The neighborhood’s amenities include a clubhouse, pavilion with fireplace, swimming pool, 24-hour fitness center, playground, and a pond for fishing along with a walking track!”  

The future Redland Middle School is scheduled to open in 2022, she added. 

The Redland area continues to attract families to Wetumpka. The combination of rural living, newer schools, and neighborhood amenities has proven to be popular for developments like Brookwood.  

The home at 239 Southern Hills Ridge provides more than 3,750 square feet of living space. The property is priced at $420,000. 

“There's an insulated, wired shop with beadboard walls and a nice-covered porch,” Schulte said. “It could also make a great home office. This amazing home also offers an oversized garage with extra storage space.”

The clean and well-maintained home was built in 2009. 

The two-story home’s elegant dining room with columns has been freshly painted, as has the bedroom in the master suite. The spacious kitchen includes new flooring, granite countertops, a large pantry, and a breakfast nook. 

A stone fireplace in the living room, ceiling fans, wood floors and a sunroom are other attractive features of the downstairs. 

Besides the master suite, there are also two more downstairs guest bedrooms which share a Jack and Jill bathroom. 

A recreation room and a huge bedroom and bathroom highlight the upstairs. The recreation room includes a built-in bar with cabinets, a wine rack, and a built-in fridge.

Outside, the elevated covered back porch overlooks the backyard and woods beyond the back fence.  A sprinkler system helps refresh the nicely landscaped yard.
