Got a big family? Here's an eight bedroom home near Prattville | REAL ESTATE

Bring the family, and the in-laws as well, to an eight-bedroom home located northeast of Prattville off Highway 31 North. The property sits on the east side of Interstate 65 in the Marbury school district, but the postal address is Prattville, Realtor Heather Oates said.

And if things somehow do get too cozy inside, venture outside and walk through the two-acre lot.

“The home sits back from the highway, and the backyard area is private,” Oates said. “The property is close to Interstate 65.”

The home at 1856 Highway 31 North provides eight bedrooms and four bathrooms. The home and two acres located northeast of Prattville are on the market for $369,000. The home was built in 1958 but has been wonderfully updated. Room sizes befit a home of more than 4,400 square feet.
