About this property

Located at 571 County Road 163 in Henagar, Jackson County, Alabama, this property features a 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick home, separate 1-bedroom, 1-bath guest house, in-ground swimming pool, 3,000-square-foot workshop with three-phase power, large three-bay metal garage, and multiple outbuildings on 2.51+/- acres in a peaceful North Alabama country setting. The main residence offers approximately 2,202 square feet of living space with hardwood floors, a brick fireplace, spacious living and dining areas, and a large kitchen with granite countertops and abundant cabinet space. The home has been well maintained and includes an updated master bathroom with a double vanity and tiled walk-in shower. New double-hung replacement windows with a transferable warranty add comfort and efficiency. Mature shade trees, established landscaping and a spacious yard give the property the comfortable, established feel of a country home. Outside, the in-ground swimming pool and large covered pavilion provide an inviting setting for summer afternoons, family gatherings and weekend cookouts. There's plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors without the maintenance of a large farm. For buyers needing substantial workspace, the 3,000-square-foot workshop with three-phase electrical power is a standout feature. A separatelarge metal three-bay garage, additional storage buildings and outbuildings provide room for vehicles, equipment, tools and hobbies. A well-built chicken coop and room for gardening add to the property's appeal for anyone interested in a small homestead lifestyle. The separate 1-bedroom, 1-bath residence is currently rented for $800 per month, providing an opportunity for rental income. It could also serve as a guest house, in-law suite, living quarters for extended family or a private home office. For buyers relocating to the area, having a second residence opens up possibilities for visiting family, aging parents or adult children who want their own space. Life on Sand Mountain offers a different pace. Henagar is part of a scenic rural region of Northeast Alabama known for its rolling farmland, small communities and easy access to outdoor recreation. Nearby Mentone, Fort Payne and Lookout Mountain offer charming mountain-town experiences, local restaurants, shops, hiking trails and waterfalls. Little River Canyon National Preserve and DeSoto State Park are among the region's most popular outdoor destinations. Lake Guntersville, the Tennessee Valley and the Chattanooga area provide additional opportunities for fishing, boating, golf, dining and weekend adventures. For someone relocating from a larger city, the attraction is simple: more room for the things you enjoy, space for family and friends, and a quieter setting to come home to. You can keep chickens, grow a garden, work on projects in your own shop, spend afternoons by the pool or simply enjoy having some distance between yourself and the neighbors. With two residences, 2.51+/- acres, an in-ground pool, covered pavilion, 3,000-square-foot workshop with three-phase power, separate three-bay metal garage, multiple outbuildings and a chicken coop, this property offers an unusual combination of comfortable country living and practical amenities. Whether you're looking for a full-time North Alabama residence, a place to retire, multigenerational living, rental income, a home-based business or a manageable country homestead, 571 County Road 163 offers plenty of possibilities. Conveniently located in Henagar, Jackson County, Alabama, near Mentone, Rainsville, Fort Payne, Ider and the surrounding Sand Mountain and Lookout Mountain areas. Offered at $424,900.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
    2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
    3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
    4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
    5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
    6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
