Property Description
Welcome to Rockhurst—one of Birmingham's most storied and beautiful estates, offered for sale for only the second time since its 1921 creation by E.J. Smyer. Perched atop Shades Mountain in Vestavia Hills, this 1.8-acre property offers sweeping views of Shades Valley and Red Mountain. Crafted from native stone, Rockhurst is the epitome of timeless Southern elegance, featuring broad porches, formal gardens, fountains, and a pool—all designed to embrace the mountain breeze and breathtaking sunsets. The main home includes 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and stunning architectural details throughout. The charming guest house features a full bath, two fireplaces, and is plumbed for a kitchen—ideal as a studio, office, or private retreat. A detached 3-car garage with an additional half bath completes the estate. This rare offering is more than a home—it's a celebration of family in the harmony of nature and striking beauty at every turn.
