Ask Bucky Henson
Get away to this private retreat on the north side of Mobile. Convenient to the city, but secluded, quiet, and peaceful.
3 bedrooms, 2 baths, an awesome 20'x40' shop/man cave w/outdoor shower, salt water pool, pond (w/fountain and dock) stocked with bass & bream & a food plot for deer on 6 acres, surrounded by woodlands and hayfields. The place even comes with a jon boat from which you can fish and switch to a new spray pattern on the pond fountain.
A gas-powered Honeywell generator is also featured (it automatically runs for 6 minutes every Saturday at 10am, just to be sure it will be ready when needed). Some of the current owners' favorite things: The den area & screen porch from which they watch deer passing through the food plot and watching ducks play in the pond; fishing from the dock; and enjoying the salt water pool. Look north through the many windows in the house at the pond, east at the food plot and south at the pool and shop.
All you hear outside are the sounds of nature and the pond fountain. Maybe the neighbor bailing hay.
Other features: Fenced yard; two privacy gates; well-fed sprinkler system, gas fireplace w/remote control; Dish TV system; satellite internet system; security system; solar panels (that power the well to enhance & maintain the pond's water level); extensive pavers around the pool and the house and leading to the shop.
