Everlee, Hoover — Where History Meets Hillside Charm

Bluff Park isn’t just a neighborhood — it’s a 150-year-old story still unfolding. Perched high above Hoover with those dramatic, sweeping views, it’s one of those places people fall in love with and never want to leave. It’s walkable, close-knit, and full of neighbors who actually wave from their front porches. You feel the history here — that mix of nostalgic Southern charm and a relaxed, front-porch pace of life that just feels right.

Bluff Park also has some of the best-ranked public schools in the area, which is why families stay for generations. And now, it’s adding some fresh pages to its story — like Everlee, a concept community with a niche for active adults and families alike. Around Birmingham, you’ll find plenty of great new-construction single-family homes in fantastic neighborhoods… but not so many new townhouses, especially starting in the mid-$300Ks like Everlee. So, if you’re a “townhouse kind of person,” this one’s a rare find.

And here’s what makes it extra special: while Hoover can sometimes feel a bit decentralized — no defined downtown and very car-dependent — Everlee flips the script. It has this small-village feeling, completely walkable, with a true social gravitational center where people naturally meet, connect, and become neighbors in the best sense of the word.

It’s all about the lifestyle — the tricks and perks for living your best, easiest life. Imagine walking (no car needed) to the gym, the swimming pool, or to meet neighbors in the gorgeous state-of-the-art social hub. Add hiking trails right around the corner, and you’ve got a community that feels perfectly connected yet still tucked away. No surprise it’s one of the most-requested neighborhoods for newcomers to tour.

It’s the kind of place where the past gives you a hug, but the future is looking you straight in the eye with a big smile.

Definitely one of my “all-time winner” picks — just 20 minutes from UAB and absolutely worth a look.https://liveeverlee.com/
