Tucked inside Opelika’s hidden-gem community of Whippoorwill Lakes, this modern farmhouse rests quietly on just over three wooded acres—private, peaceful, and perfectly placed to capture the sunset. From the wide front porch, you can see the lake shimmer across the road, a view that follows you into the office, dining area, and primary suite.
Step inside and you’ll feel how intentional every inch is—an open plan anchored by vaulted ceilings, a large center island, and light pouring through the back of the home. The split-bedroom layout gives each space its own sense of calm, while an additional office sits just off the main living area for work or hobbies.
With over 3 acres to explore, there’s room for a workshop, garden, or simply trails through the trees. The oversized two-car garage and sweeping front and back porches frame the home with the balance of function and character that defines Whippoorwill.
It’s a home built for everyday life—and evenings spent watching the light fade over the water.
