Tutt Land Company is excited to offer for sale The Piedmont Farm, a truly iconic property located in fast growing Lee County and within the city limits of beautiful Opelika, Alabama.  This 92 acre (+-) gentleman's farm has been in the same family for over 100 years and is one of the most desirable tracts of land in the area.  The location is second to none, being less than two miles from downtown Opelika, where you will find multiple restaurants, shops and local businesses. This is a great area of Alabama to call home and according to recent data, Lee County is the 3rd fastest growing county and Opelika is the 4th fastest growing city in the state.  To the southwest only a few miles is the highly desirable city of Auburn which is home to Auburn University and Jordan Hare Stadium, the home of the Auburn Tigers football team.  There are multiple golf courses in the area including the Robert Trent Jones Grand National course, located only a few miles northwest of the farm.  Opelika is located just off of Interstate 85 and Hwy 280 making travel to major cities like Atlanta and Birmingham very easy.  All I can say is "location, location, location!" 

This property is absolutely beautiful, with most of it consisting of rolling, open pasture land used for a homeplace and small cattle operation in the past.  The farm has frontage on two city streets, Waverly Parkway and Terracewood Ave, and also has access on the north end to Arrowhead Ave. There is an 11 acre pecan orchard on the south end of the property, a small pond and varying speicies of mature hardwood trees surrounding the pasture land.  There are multiple structures on the farm including barns and outbuildings, a very unique log cabin dating back to the late 1700s(see pictures) and the family home, which was built in 1938.  The home, about 3100 SF with 4BR/3BA, sits on top of a hill, a picturesque site overlooking the pecan orchard and pasture land.  Around the home are multiple species of plants and trees like azaleas, viburnum, large oaks and pecans.  Spring time is beautiful here!  The surrounding area is nice and settled, with older homes as well as new subdivisions being currently developed.   

The Piedmont Farm really is a once in a lifetime offering and I believe it is one of the most unique properties to come on the market in recent years.  It is a premium property with strong residential development potential, it is ideal for a horse form/equine facility or it could continue being used as a family farm with all the conveniences of living in the city.  This is one property that you do not want to miss out on!
