One of Alabama’s most distinctive homes is now a little more affordable.
The Castle at Smith Lake, a stunning house in Cullman County, now has an asking price of $3.9 million – $1 million less than when the house hit the market in the summer of 2023.
It is available through Arc Realty.
Built in 1980, this gated home off County Road 211 in Bremen offers views with a sense of privacy. It can be purchased with six acres, with the option to acquire additional waterfront and wooded acres.
The four-bed, four-bath house occupies 4,974 square feet and has many amenities: three fireplaces, a jetted tub, 9-foot ceilings, walk-in closets, hardwood and stone floors, a butler’s pantry and stone staircase.
There are multiple open decks, grass landings, a gazebo, and a grilling patio.
There’s also a boat dock, fish house, four boat slips with two lifts and an 8,000-square-foot workshop, with four bays and full RV hookup.

Francine continued to move inland late Wednesday after making landfall late this afternoon in Louisiana.
Francine moved onshore as a Category 2 hurricane with 100 mph winds and has been causing damage and flooding across southeast Louisiana.
A tropical storm warning remained in effect for Alabama’s coastal areas late Wednesday. Wind advisories will also go into effect for most of the rest of the state overnight and into Thursday.
Rain, wind and storms from Francine are expected to track into Alabama overnight, and there will be a threat for tornadoes, according to the National Weather Service.
Southwest Alabama has a Level 2 out of 5 (slight) risk for severe weather overnight, but things have been on the quiet side as of 9 p.m., with no severe weather warnings issued so far.
The weather service in Mobile is concerned that could change overnight. Those across south Alabama are urged to make sure they have reliable ways to get severe weather warnings overnight if they are issued.
Rain bands were tracking toward the state off the Gulf of Mexico late Wednesday:
The weather service said conditions will become more favorable for tornadoes from late Wednesday through early Thursday morning:
Tornadoes will be possible overnight in south Alabama and the area in red will have a more immediate risk.NWS
The risk for a few tornadoes will continue into Thursday and will include more of the state. Here’s the severe weather outlook for Thursday:
More isolated tornadoes will be possible across most of Alabama on Thursday as Francine passes by to the west.SPC
It will also continue to be windy across the state, with gusts up to 40 mph possible. Winds could cause scattered power outages.
Just over 2,000 power outages were reported as of 9 p.m., and they were mostly in Choctaw County on the Mississippi state line.

Alabama football injury updates: latest on Kadyn Proctor, Cole Adams and Elijah Pritchett
![Alabama football injury updates: latest on Kadyn Proctor, Cole Adams and Elijah Pritchett Alabama football injury updates: latest on Kadyn Proctor, Cole Adams and Elijah Pritchett](https://www.al.com/resizer/v2/UG7LK2LTCFC37GL3FTSFJZGHVU.jpg?auth=443516bae3b95cb9c31dc7edef01b03cf50482a334378ca4bb2deab71f35c185&width=1280&quality=90)
It seems Alabama football’s offensive line is finally getting healthy. After two games of shuffling players around due to injury, Kalen DeBoer gave a positive report Wednesday.
DeBoer sounded especially optimistic about left tackle Kadyn Proctor. The sophomore has not seen the field this season after injuring his shoulder in pregame warmups before the Crimson Tide’s season opener against Western Kentucky.
“He’s been practicing,” DeBoer said on the SEC coaches teleconference. “He’s doing well, doing a good job and really was heading in a really good direction right at the very end of last week and turned the corner I think there, and is in a good spot here, done a nice job here in the first two days of practice.”
Alabama’s issues at tackle were compounded by the coaching staff trying to rest Elijah Pritchett, who was dealing with a minor injury. Pritchett did not play until late against South Florida, after taking Proctor’s left tackle spot over for the WKU game.
“We’re still working through the plan, but he finished the game out on saturday and really had no more setbacks, which was great,” DeBoer said. “Something that we were very concerned about and didn’t want to hold him back. He had worked very hard from the week before, and injury that people weren’t aware of just because of the way the score was, so he’s in a good spot right now as well. We’re working through that plan and just the rotation with the offensive line.”
Elsewhere on offense, DeBoer said the Crimson Tide will likely be without wide receiver Cole Adams. He’s also UA’s regular punt returner.
Adams suffered what looked like a serious arm injury against South Florida, but DeBoer said it wasn’t as bad as it could have been.
“I think he dodged a lot of bullets with just how quickly he’s going to be coming back,” DeBoer said. “That’s great news for our program here in the last couple days, just with further assessments and the process he’s going through to get back on the football field.”
Alabama faces Wisconsin Saturday in Madison. The game is scheduled to kick off at 11 a.m. CT and will be aired on FOX.
