This beautiful 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath house is for sale in Gardendale. This home is minutes from I65. Almost every part of this house has been updated and renovated over the years. The house was painted in 2021. The LARGE 27’ pool and shed were both installed in 2021 as well and the roof was totally replaced about 2 years ago. The Kitchen has Granite countertops and nice appliances. The three bedrooms upstairs have just had the carpets replaced and both bathrooms upstairs have been updated as well with Carrera Marble counters and new floors in the master bath. Downstairs has a nice Office, a half bath, and large bonus room with nice size closet that is being used as a bedroom. The fenced in backyard has a nice deck with a walkway to the above Ground pool. The new shed (10x20) has lights and power. Smart home upgrades are throughout the house. This is a truly wonderful house and area. The neighbors and schools are good as well. This is a great find in the Gardendale/Mt Olive area.

A1
Agricultural District
This district consists primarily of undeveloped lands where agricultural and related pursuits may occur within the city and where agriculture support centers may serve outlying rural areas beyond the city. Further, the intent of the A-1 district is to preserve these areas in agriculture, forestry, outdoor recreational, rural residential and other limited, yet compatible, uses until such time as a higher density development pattern may be desired and city services can be expanded to accommodate this development.
