40-Acre Former Dairy Farm – Just 30 Minutes from Downtown Tuscaloosa

This beautiful 40-acre former dairy farm is a rare find, offering rolling countryside, mature timber, abundant water, and an impressive collection of farm improvements—all just 30 minutes from downtown Tuscaloosa.

At the heart of the property is a charming 1,200-square-foot, 3-bedroom, 1-bath farmhouse with a covered patio perfect for grilling, entertaining, and enjoying quiet evenings in the country. Elsewhere on the property, a stocked, spring-fed pond with a fishing pier adds to the picturesque setting and recreational appeal.

The farm is exceptionally well equipped with a barn featuring a tack room, feed room, and hay loft; a five-bay equipment shed with a new roof; and a three-bay insulated shop on a concrete pad with two 12-foot roll-up doors. A large storm shelter capable of accommodating approximately 25 people provides additional security and potential for other uses.

The 40 acres feature beautiful rolling topography with three established food plots and a picturesque mix of mature hardwood and pine timber. Nearly a decade ago, the standing timber was cruised and valued at approximately $70,000, speaking to the quality of the timber found throughout the property. A 260-foot-deep well drilled into a substantial aquifer provides an excellent water source.

Tucked away on a quiet dead-end road with neighbors who appreciate the same peaceful country lifestyle, this property truly is a little slice of heaven. Whether you're looking for a family farm, country homestead, recreational retreat, or simply a place with room to slow down and enjoy the land, properties with this combination of character, improvements, and natural beauty are getting harder and harder to find.
