Property Description

160 Acres. One Extraordinary Place. Some Properties Check All the Boxes. Others Make You Forget You Were Looking for Boxes. Every now and then, a property comes along that is difficult to describe because its greatest quality isn't something you can measure. It's a feeling. Cypress Ridge is one of those properties. Located in the highly desirable Mathews/Fitzpatrick area of Bullock County, Alabama, Cypress Ridge encompasses 160 acres of beautiful land, mature timber, open spaces, pecan trees, an exceptional lake, and an impressive barndominium. But before you see any of those things, you'll experience the entrance. Pass through the gated entry and follow the gravel drive as it winds through mature hardwoods. The trees create a natural canopy and a sense of privacy that makes the outside world begin to disappear. And somewhere along that drive, you realize you've arrived somewhere special. THEN THE PROPERTY OPENS UP Cypress Ridge was once an equestrian property and is now being enjoyed as a recreational retreat. Today, the land offers an extraordinary combination of beauty and versatility. Mature hardwoods and pines provide character and privacy. Open acreage creates flexibility. Pecan trees add another layer of beauty. And throughout it all, the property feels intentional without feeling overdone. It feels like a place that has been cared for. A place that was meant to be enjoyed. And because of the way the property is situated, there's another experience waiting at the end of the day. The sunsets at Cypress Ridge can be breathtaking. As the sun drops across the landscape, the open portions of the property provide expansive views of the evening sky. It's the kind of sunset that makes you stop whatever you're doing, find a comfortable place to sit, and simply watch. Some properties give you a beautiful view. Cypress Ridge gives you a reason to stay until the sun goes down. THE BARNDOMINIUM At the center of Cypress Ridge is an impressive 80' x 140' barndominium with approximately 2,500 square feet of heated and cooled living space. It's a remarkable improvement and an equally remarkable opportunity. You could use it as your recreational headquarters today while envisioning what comes next. Perhaps that's a magnificent estate-style home. Perhaps it's a family compound where children and grandchildren have their own place to gather. Perhaps horses return to the property. Perhaps it becomes a corporate retreat or private gathering place. Or perhaps the best decision is to simply enjoy Cypress Ridge exactly as it is. That's the beauty of this property. It doesn't demand a particular vision. It gives you room to create your own. THE LAKE Then there's the lake. An intensively managed fishing lake, thoughtfully developed for someone who genuinely enjoys being around the water. The lake includes approximately $10,000 in artificial fish habitat, an aeration system, underground power, two covered boat slips, and power and water at the dock. It's easy to imagine the rhythm of life here. A quiet morning on the dock. An afternoon fishing with a grandchild. Friends gathered around the water. A sunset reflected across the surface of the lake. A summer evening that makes everyone stop talking for a few minutes. The lake isn't simply another feature of Cypress Ridge. It's one of the places where memories will happen. A SPORTSMAN'S PROPERTY The Mathews/Fitzpatrick area is well known for exceptional deer and turkey hunting, and Cypress Ridge offers the kind of setting that makes outdoor recreation feel natural. The property also includes a 200-yard shooting range, giving the next owner another way to enjoy the land. Hunt. Fish. Shoot. Ride. Explore. Gather. Watch the sunset. Or do absolutely nothing. Sometimes that's the point. BEAUTY WITH PURPOSE What makes Cypress Ridge particularly compelling is the balance. It has the beauty you'd expect from a premier recreational property, but it also has the infrastructure to make the property enjoyable from day one. It has privacy without feeling inaccessible. It has recreational opportunities without feeling like a commercial facility. It has improvements without losing the natural beauty of the land. And it has enough acreage to give you a true sense of ownership while remaining manageable enough to actually enjoy. WHAT COULD CYPRESS RIDGE BECOME? That's perhaps the most exciting question. Maybe you've dreamed of building an estate where your family can gather for generations. Maybe you've been looking for the right place to create a private family compound. Maybe horses have always been part of your life and you're looking for a property worthy of bringing them home. Maybe you're searching for a corporate retreat where people can get away from conference rooms and reconnect with one another. Or maybe you don't need a reason at all. Maybe you've reached a point in life where you simply want a beautiful place where you can slow down. Cypress Ridge can accommodate all of those visions. THE PERFECT BUYER I don't think the right buyer for Cypress Ridge is simply someone looking for 160 acres. The right buyer will recognize what's difficult to find. A desirable location. A beautiful entrance. Mature timber. Open land. A remarkable lake. Exceptional recreational opportunities. A substantial barndominium. And, perhaps most importantly, a feeling that can't be added later. You can build a house. You can construct a barn. You can improve a lake. You can plant trees. But you can't easily manufacture the character and sense of place that Cypress Ridge already possesses. SOME PLACES JUST FEEL EXTRAORDINARILY PEACEFUL I've had the privilege of seeing and selling some beautiful properties. Cypress Ridge is different. It's the kind of place that makes you slow down. The kind of place where a gravel road through mature hardwoods becomes part of the experience. The kind of place where the lake gives you somewhere to go when you don't really need to go anywhere. The kind of place where family gatherings can become traditions. And the kind of place where you can sit at the end of the day and watch the sky turn brilliant shades of orange, pink, purple, and gold. The kind of place where the sunset becomes part of the reason you don't want to leave. And maybe that's what Cypress Ridge really offers. Not just 160 acres. Not just a barndominium. Not just a lake. Not just hunting and recreation. A place with the rare combination of beauty, improvements, location, versatility, and peace that makes you want to stay awhile. Cypress Ridge isn't for everyone. And honestly, it shouldn't be. It's for the person who walks through that gate, looks down that gravel drive, sees the lake, feels the quiet, watches the sun settle across the property, and thinks: “This is it.” This is the place I've been looking for.
