Looking for country life in a great location here is a nice house on a small farm with beautiful woods within 20 minutes of Enterprise, Ft. Rucker and Troy! The Victoria Place is an old homestead and farm that has been in the family for 70 years. It features a cozy and spotless 1,600 square foot home on 34 acres with paved road frontage and easy access.
The land is an ideal mix of row crop, pasture, planted pines and hardwoods. There is a five acre multi-use pasture along the road on the west side that is currently used for raising goats. There are another five acres in farm land on either side of the house. This acreage is perfect for some crops or a large garden and has been used to grow a variety of vegetables in recent years. There are 4-5 acres of merchantable pine trees behind the east field. The balance of the acreage is in beautiful hardwoods with some scattered pines....

There are 4-5 acres of merchantable pine trees behind the east field. The balance of the acreage is in beautiful hardwoods with some scattered pines. The mature hardwoods include some spectacular white and red oaks and an open understory. Some natural springs in the woods, along with runoff from along the road, have carved a scenic, deep creek bed through the hardwoods that could become a nice pond site.
Located in the Zion Chapel school district, the Victoria Place has over 2,500 feet of road frontage on Hwy 125. It is surrounded by large timber tracts, pasture land, and other country homesteads. There are deer tracks all over the place! There are several old outbuildings on the property, one remains in use for equipment storage. The original owners even raised quail on this property many years ago.
The solid brick home with metal roof was originally built in 1947 by the owners parents. It is extremely well maintained and move-in ready! The home features an open floor plan and there have been two major additions from the original footprint. The kitchen, which has plenty of storage, a vintage electric stove in excellent condition, and a modern dishwasher and refrigerator, is spacious and has a large area for the dining table. It is both charming and welcoming. The family room is open to the kitchen/dining area and is complete with the original gas heater. Although there is no central a/c and heat, this area has a functioning window unit that keeps the living area very comfortable. True to the time period, there is one full bathroom, however, the 3rd room off the master could be easily configured to be a roomy master bath.
The formal living room is yet another room full of space and character. The original gas heater is a beautiful addition. Much of the home still has its beautiful solid wood paneling. The Master and the additional room are in the back of the home, while a 2nd bedroom is nicely sized and in the front next to the formal living area. Just out a few steps from the kitchen carport door is a large outbuilding that has its own water heater and a wonderful, spacious laundry area equipped with both a washer and dryer. The space makes it possible to have extra storage and even room for a large freezer and second refrigerator. The other half of the outbuilding is the perfect workshop. You will love the extra overhead cover on the east side of the building for vehicles, equipment and 4-wheelers. A high quality, black chain link fence with four gates completely surrounds the home providing security for children or pets.
This home exudes warmth and coziness and the nice layout along with its move-in ready condition make this a very special property. If you are looking for an older country home in great shape on a nice tract of land at a very competitive price, you need to see the Victoria Place!
