Monte Sano: Huntsville's mountain neighborhood
Monte Sano sits on top of the mountain east of downtown. You get cooler temperatures in the summer, mature hardwoods, trail access from your back door (Land Trust and Monte Sano State Park), and a 10-minute drive down Bankhead to downtown.
Inventory is limited — these are established lots, many of them custom builds from the '50s through today. When a home comes up, it usually moves fast.
