Homes Near Greenways and Walking Trails

Huntsville and Madison keep adding greenways, and the Land Trust of North Alabama protects miles of trails on the mountains around town. This page finds every home for sale whose listing mentions a greenway, walking trail or trail access.

Counting... in Madison, Limestone and Morgan counties

Some of these homes back right up to a city greenway. Others are in neighborhoods with their own walking trails, or a few minutes from a trailhead. The quote on each card shows exactly what the listing says, so you can tell which is which.

Homes for sale that mention a greenway, trail or trail access

Found by reading the description of every active listing. The words are the listing agent's, not ours: confirm every detail with the listing agent before you rely on it.

Before you buy

  • Walk it yourself. Check how far the trail really is, whether there is a sidewalk to get there, and where people park.
  • Ask who owns the land behind you. A greenway or common area behind the lot can be great, but it also means people passing by. Ask about fences and easements.
  • Check the plans. Cities extend greenways over time. Planned segments can change what is behind or near a home.
  • Neighborhood trails come with an HOA. If the trail belongs to the subdivision, it is usually maintained with HOA dues. Read the covenants.
