Live the Dream: Hobby Farm Life on 10 Acres in Athens, AL
16869 Shaw Road | $600,000 | 4 Beds | 3 Baths | 3,219 Sqft
If you've been dreaming of wide-open spaces, peaceful mornings, and the freedom to embrace a more self-sustained lifestyle—this is the listing that makes it possible. Nestled on 10 acres of private, tree-lined land, 16869 Shaw Road in Athens, Alabama is more than just a home—it's a lifestyle.
A Home with Room to Breathe
Step inside this charming 4-bedroom, 3-bath home and you’ll immediately notice the warm, welcoming layout. The spacious kitchen, outfitted with custom cabinets, is perfect for home-cooked meals after a day spent outdoors. Whether you're hosting family gatherings or enjoying quiet evenings, the open living area and cozy den offer the perfect backdrop for every occasion.
Each of the oversized bedrooms offers a restful retreat, with enough space to truly stretch out—ideal for growing families, multi-generational living, or those who simply appreciate more room to relax.
Equestrian-Ready & Farm-Forward
What truly sets this property apart is what lies beyond the home itself. The 30x40 detached garage is perfect for hobbies, storage, or your next project. And if horses are part of your dream, you're in luck—this property features a barn with three 12x12 stalls, an enclosed tack room, and fully fenced acreage ready for riding, grazing, or even expanding your herd.
In the back portion of the property, you'll find a shoot house nestled in the trees, offering a peaceful spot for outdoor enthusiasts.
