Property Description
New HVAC and water heater (2026) • Approx. 4 mi to Gunter Annex • Wired workshop out back • Metal roof There's something easy about a one-story brick ranch with a metal roof and shade trees out front. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home at 5427 Handel Dr in Montgomery, AL 36109 gives you 1,827 square feet all on one level, plus a covered front porch worth sitting on. The big-ticket items are already handled. HVAC and water heater are both brand new in 2026, and the metal roof is only about seven years old. Inside, the living and dining areas open into each other through the middle of the house, with tile flooring, ceiling fans, and wide windows that keep things bright. The kitchen is built for someone who actually cooks - generous wood cabinetry, a wall oven, electric cooktop, dishwasher, stainless steel appliances, a double sink, and long stretches of counter. The laundry area sits on its own with washer and dryer hookups and a wood-lined storage closet. All three bedrooms sit along one hall. The primary bath has a tiled walk-in shower with a rainfall fixture; the second has a tub/shower combination and a long vanity. Slide the glass door open and the covered patio turns into a second living room, with more paved space for the grill. The fenced backyard holds a detached brick workshop wired for electricity - room for a shop, a hobby bench, a home gym, or the mower and yard tools. Covered parking and a long driveway take a boat or trailer. You're about 0.2 mi off the Atlanta Highway corridor in east Montgomery, so errands stay short: roughly 1 mi to Eastdale Mall and the I-85 / Eastern Boulevard interchange, about 4 mi to Gunter Annex and 10 mi to Maxwell Air Force Base. Blount Cultural Park and the Alabama Shakespeare Festival are about 2 mi out, Baptist Medical Center East about 2.5 mi, Auburn University at Montgomery about 3 mi, the Shoppes at EastChase about 4.5 mi, and downtown Montgomery roughly 6.5 mi.
