The Green Briar Estate is a true large-acreage offering — 31.2± acres in 2 impressive tracts on Greenbrier Dear Road in Calhoun County, Alabama, anchored by a substantial 3,066± sq ft brick-and-stone home set on a private hilltop with simultaneous city and mountain views. Tracts of this size with an established home, road frontage, open ground, and wooded acreage rarely come to the open market — and even more rarely at public auction. This is the kind of estate buyers wait years to see, and the kind of property that typically trades privately before it ever reaches a listing platform. Here, the market gets to set the price. The 32.15± acres are the headline. The tract combines wooded perimeter with usable open ground, giving the new owner real privacy at the boundaries and genuine flexibility through the heart of the property. Long road frontage along Greenbrier Dear Road provides direct, year-round access, and a circular drive sets up an intentional arrival from the first turn. Acreage of this size opens doors most properties can't: additional homesites, equestrian use, recreational pursuits, food plots, family compounds, shop buildings, gardens, trails, or a long-term land hold strategy. The home gives the property immediate utility — but the 31.2± acres give it reach. The residence is a 3,066± sq ft brick-and-stone home built in 1979, when construction meant something. Four-sides brick with native stone accents, two masonry wood-burning fireplaces — a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace in the great room and a brick fireplace in the finished basement — vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, crown molding, and a bay window framing the panorama. Five bedrooms, three full baths, and 2,131± sq ft on the main level with 935± sq ft of finished basement below, including a basement bedroom and dedicated laundry — ideal for guest quarters, multigenerational living, a rec room, or home theater. The kitchen offers solid surface countertops, electric cooktop, built-in dishwasher, and self-cleaning oven. Outside, a wraparound deck with covered pergola and open entertaining sections extends the living space toward the view, complemented by a 2-car side-entry garage with basement parking and dedicated boat parking. Dual heat pump systems, two electric water heaters, security system, and city/mountain views from the great room, the master suite, and every section of the deck. Estates like this — 32+ acres, hilltop setting, substantial brick-and-stone home, road frontage, panoramic views, and proven construction — are not replaceable. When tracts of this size do come available in Calhoun County, they're usually gone before the public ever sees them. This online-only auction puts the Green Briar Estate in front of every qualified buyer at once and lets the market decide. Bidding closes Wednesday, June 10, 2026 at 6:30 PM Central. Property sold AS-IS. Buyer is responsible for independent verification of acreage, parcel lines, square footage, zoning, schools, utilities, and intended use. Parcel No. 21-04-17-4-001-018.000 · Calhoun County, Alabama. Register to bid at RedfieldGroup.com. Auctioneer: Mike Fisher, AL Lic. #1911.

All bidders acknowledge and agree by their participation in the auction, that the bidder has inspected the Property, or voluntarily chose not to inspect, and are not relying on any warranty or representation of Seller or Auction Company, or any agent thereof, and that the bidder would be buying the Property "AS IS, WHERE IS" and "WITH ALL FAULTS." RGA may refuse a buyer's number and bidding privileges to anyone for any reason. Bidder agrees to provide any identification RGA may request including but not limited to: driver’s license, photocopies of credit cards, wire transfer, bank letter of guarantee, Social Security card or US Passport. Bidder agrees to comply with any stated additional terms or conditions associated with particular items. Bidder agrees to pay all charges and expenses incurred by reason of any breach of Terms & Conditions of auction, or in case of default, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees, as well as any dollar deficiencies which may result in the resale of the property and the cost of re-marketing said property. Additional commissions shall be due and payable.
All bidders must receive a bid number to bid. A valid credit card is required to bid. Bidder agrees that a $5000 hold can be placed on their credit card for an internet service fee and that if they are the winning bidder and fail to close under the terms of this agreement, the $5000 internet service fee is non-refundable and will be charged to their credit card. If they are not the winning bidder and close under the terms of the terms of this agreement, the $5000 internet service fee will be released.

RGA will not be responsible for any missed bids from any source. Internet bidders who desire to make certain their bid is acknowledged place their maximum bids at least two hours prior to the auction closing time. RGA reserves the right to withdraw or re-catalog items in this auction. In the event of any software problem, mistake or other issue, RGA reserves the right to extend the closing times, stop, restart or cancel this auction at its sole discretion.

The bids are advanced at pre-set increments available on the bidding web page. From time to time RGA may accept items with secret reserves prices.

If, having acknowledged an opening bid, he decides that an advance is not sufficient, he may reject the advance.
SOFT CLOSE AUCTION:: This is a soft close auction which means that any bids placed in the final minutes will add additional time to the clock. This process will be repeated until no bids are placed in an extended period. This process gives everyone adequate time to decide if they would like to bid again and eliminates someone losing the bid because a bid was placed in the final moments of the clock. If the extensions are “Extend one, Extend All”, any bids placed in the final minutes on any item will extend the clock on all items in the auction and will continue to do so until no bids are placed in the extended periods. Any advertisements or postings that refer to auction closing time are referring to an approximate time that the auction will begin closing. Auctioneer reserves the right to alter closing times, start times, extension periods, extend one-extend all and all other matters as to the process and details of the auction.
SURVEY: The property has not been surveyed for this auction. If the Buyer or Buyer’s lender require another survey, it will be at the expense of the buyer and shall not impact the closing date set forth in these terms. If that survey shows a lesser or greater number of acres, the purchase price shall not be adjusted. There is a parcel of land approximately .94 acres that has been conveyed to another owner. The property currently hosts a cell phone tower and there is an easement through the property being sold to grant access to the cell tower. A map of the property is available online along with easement description. Property is being sold subject to that easement of record.
The successful bidder will be required to sign the "Purchase and Sale Agreement" within 24 hours of auction close and deposit 10% of the total contract price into the escrow account. Failure to do so will be considered a breach of contract. Under no circumstances shall Bidder have any kind of claim against Redfield Group Auctions, Inc., or anyone else if the internet service fails to work correctly before or during the auction.
Bidder agrees that by registering for the online auction, they have accepted all of these Terms and Conditions.
Bidder is responsible for any and all bids placed by their account. All decisions of the Auctioneer shall be final, including but not limited to decisions on matters such as increments of bidding, disputes among bidders, and any other issues that may arise during the sale.

The total purchase price shall be the winning high bid plus an Auction Fee equal to ten percent (10%) of the winning bid. The successful bidder shall be required to sign the Agreement and pay earnest money equal to ten percent (10%) of the total purchase price, as ("Earnest Money Deposit") immediately following the auction. The Earnest Money Deposit will include the Bidder Deposit, with the balance being in the form of a personal or company check and is due immediately after being declared the Purchaser. Earnest Money Deposit check shall be made payable to Copeland Law Firm, LLC. If, for any reason Buyer fails to execute The Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement or pay the deposit immediately following the auction, Seller has sole discretion to: (a) pursue all legal and equitable remedies available against Buyer, or (b) declare the Buyer's bid to be immediately forfeited, null, and void, without any requirement of notice, and immediately re-sell the Property to another buyer. In the event, the winning bidder does not sign the Purchase and Sale Agreement and/or does not pay the Earnest Money Deposit down within 24 hours, bidder agrees that they will be responsible for any deficiencies between their contract price and an eventual contract price if sold to someone else.
