The Ridge at Burleson Mountain Development & Decatur, AL
Are you looking for the perfect place for your next development? The Ridge is located in one of the fastest growing regions in the nation. It's a 15- to 20- minute drive from Redstone Arsenal where thousands of jobs are being created by the Base Realignment and Closure Act. The 165-acre property - with flat to gently rolling meadows and lakes - sits atop Burleson Mountain and features one-half mile of breathtaking views of the Tennessee Valley.
The site is one mile from the Burningtree Golf Course and Country Club and is adjacent to the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge, a 35,000-acre refuge along the banks of the Tennessee River.
The Ridge has been approved for over 400 lots. All municipal utilities, including sanitary sewer, are available. Development work could begin almost immediately and the property is being offered for sale or co-development for less than $20,000 per acre.
