FullSizeRender 5 $2.4M Mtn. Brook home leads a week of high-end Jefferson County home sales
3020 Woodleigh Road in Mountain Brook (Mary Helene Hall / Bham Now)

The recent sale of a Mountain Brook home in Sherwood Forest is among several homes that sold last week for more than $1 million.

Originally listed for $1,849,000, the 2.3-acre property at 3020 Woodleigh Road closed at a staggering $2,410,000 — a $561,000 premium over asking — after just two days on the market.

The 4,655-square-foot home, featuring a gourmet kitchen and a detached guest suite, nearly doubled its value since its last sale in 2019 at $1.125 million. This rapid transaction highlights a notable trend in the Mountain Brook Elementary zone of rare, multi-acre lots with move-in-ready luxury.
