Bring your horses! Firefly Cottage in Magnolia Springs, Alabama is an idyllic escape unlike any other. Nestled among enormous ancient live oaks, this quaint French Creole style dwelling sits posed on 8.8 beautiful acres hidden from the outside world. A nearly 800 foot private drive leads you back to the fully fenced property outfitted with separately fenced pastures with pole barn fit for horses, livestock or simply gardening. Infinite species of birds sing throughout the day as stars glow brightly by night in the darkness of the country sky. In late spring and early summer, you'll discover just how this cottage acquired its name as the entire farm becomes aglow with the most magical display of fireflies. Just wait until you step inside from the expansive covered front porch... upscale decorator appointments are through-out. The newly remodeled kitchen is open with lap siding enveloping the walls, countertops are 3 cm granite with a deep farm house sink, custom solid wood cabinetry with self closing drawers & stainless appliances round out this space. The kitchen is open to the large family room with 17 ft ceilings that center around a real wood burning fireplace. Beyond the kitchen lies a bright and airy sun room which overlooks the 300 sq ft rear porch with pergola and large 18' x 36' salt water swimming pool. The expansive Master Suite has two entries, the same hand oiled wide plank reclaimed white oak floors, built-in bench seating with storage and a lovely custom tile & stone master bath with deep soaking tub. Two bedrooms share a newly remodeled bath upstairs. There is also a 368 sq ft bonus room complete with full bath located above the garage that may serve as a mother-in-law/guest suite, game room, artist/writer studio or office area. The oversized finished garage provides an additional 620 sq ft of optional living space if desired as the insulated garage door allows for a heated/cooled environment.
