The Plantersville Institute Dormitory

A Meticulously Restored Antebellum Estate

5154 Plantersville Road, Alpine, Alabama 35014
c.1850 • 3,144 square feet • 5 bedrooms • 3 baths • 6.60 acres • $845,500!

Welcome to the Plantersville Institute Dormitory, built by A.D. Bell circa 1850 for Isaac Stone, a wealthy planter. The home was later owned by Thomas Armstrong Cook who was a former teacher at the institute.

This two-story Greek Revival estate stood the test of time and is the last surviving antebellum building in the Plantersville community. Four majestic square columns, under a tetrastyle portico, support a pediment over the central bay of the 50-foot wide three-bay front facade.

The portico shelters the main front double door entrance, in addition to a second story balcony with an intricate wrought iron balustrade and matching upper doorway, flanked by sidelights creating a three-part window arrangement.

Boasting 3 large bedrooms and a newly updated full bath upstairs, and 2 newly updated full baths downstairs with optional master on main. The home features axe-hewn beams, mortise and tenon joint construction, and original wide heart-pine floors, front and back stairs.
