593 Ripple Lane

Located on the premier street for equestrian estate homes, this 51+ acre retreat is minutes from the heart of Huntsville with the quiet peace of a more bucolic setting.

As you drive through the canopied gated entrance you are welcomed home by the quintessential Southern wraparound porch, painted brick, and stately columns that overlook stunning pasture and mountain views. As you continue past the guest cottage and three car garage, you will find the state-of-the-art 5 stall horse barn, complete with grooming and bathing amenities.

High-design and completely custom finishes can be found throughout the 5 bedroom home and guest cottage, including hand-painted foyer floor, rich walnut executive study, grass cloth coffered ceilings, designer wallpapers, and onyx accent sink. The home features stunning antique heart pine wood floors, solid wood doors, extensive millwork design, and crown molding.

The bright kitchen, with travertine island and marble counters, double ovens, hooded Viking gas range, pot filler, glass cabinetry, and built-in 46" Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer seamlessly flows into the timbered great room with vaulted ceiling, statement making fireplace, and more stunning views. Just beyond the great room, the outdoor woodburning fireplace patio offers a cozy retreat surrounded by natural beauty. In addition to the walk-in pantry, the laundry room is remarkably sized with a storage island and additional built-in refrigerator and freezer.

With the music/dining room and office on either side of the foyer, the main entryway opens to a spacious living room with impressive millwork, gas fireplace, and a row of French doors leading to the exquisite backyard. This oasis offers many poolside lounge options and features a hot tub, cabana, another woodburning fireplace, and basketball court.

The main level master suite with separate sitting room and gas fireplace privately overlooks the pool. It features dual sink vanities with floating mirrors, a clawfoot tub, walk-in multi-head shower, and large his and hers custom closets. There is an additional large main level guest suite with walk-in shower, soaking tub, dual sink vanity, and large walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms and two full baths are found upstairs beyond the loft.

The finished basement with kitchenette/wet bar, exercise room, firearm/hunting/hobby room, workshop, and abundant storage areas offers generous space for casual entertaining and family time. Above the three-car garage, the 1,073 square foot one bedroom guest cottage with full kitchen and living room overlooks the swimming pool – perfect for extended holiday guests or as a private mother-in-law retreat.

The expansive fenced pasture with riding corral and stocked fishing pond is met by wooded acreage that provides full 360 degree privacy around the home.
