A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the former family estate of the Alabama Snellgroves awaits a new owner. Reminiscent of the West wing of Monticello, Thomas Jefferson’s Charlottesville, Virginia home, this timeless, 1949, historic landmark estate has been beautifully restored to its original elegance. A paved drive leads through white columns meandering to the home’s columned entrance. The home’s quality features have been totally restored. Large rooms are warmed by satiny oak floors. Massive, thick wood doors swing quietly. There are walls with wainscoting, tall ceilings, and ornate fireplace mantles. There are crown molding, picture rails, and many, many closets. Other amenities include intricate woodwork throughout, original stained glass and leaded glass windows, high ceilings, original hardwood floors, and a large glassed sunroom. The Chef’s Kitchen with all new commercial-grade appliances includes a Z-line six-burner gas range, an enormous double-door refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher. There are ample new high-quality cabinets and lots of room to move around. The tiled kitchen is open to a large family room with a massive wood-burning fireplace, and oversized windows looking out onto the grounds. This design makes entertaining easy where no one is lingering in the busy kitchen yet everyone feels a part of the goings-on! The master suite includes a luxurious bath with both tub and an open-design shower with a ceiling-mount luxury showerhead. There’s an enormous walk-in closet with built-in storage. A glass-enclosed porch has access to a beautiful brick courtyard. An attached garage apartment is great for guests or a home office. Poised on 13.59 parklike pastureland acres, this landmark estate is located in wine country. The famed Maraella Winery is less than one minute away. You’ll find all this within minutes of downtown Gadsden, plenty of parks, and the wonderful Riverwalk City Park that runs along the Coosa River.
