Thinking About Living in Greystone Golf & Country Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Greystone Golf & Country Club and the surrounding Birmingham Metro golf market.
Greystone Golf & Country Club is one of the clearest flagship-tier golf-residential cases in the Birmingham market: a genuinely large, gated golf community with real, sustained national tournament pedigree. The Founders Course (Bob Cupp and former PGA Champion Hubert Green, 1991) and the Legacy Course (Rees Jones, 2000) give the club 36 holes -- Alabama's only 36-hole equity club. In 2009, the membership purchased the club outright from its original developer, Daniel Corporation, converting it into a member-owned equity club rather than a developer-operated amenity, a meaningful structural detail for prospective members researching long-term control and assessment risk.
On tournament pedigree, Greystone's Founders Course hosted the Bruno's Memorial Classic, a PGA Tour Champions event, from 1992 to 2005, and since 2016 has been the permanent host of the Regions Tradition, one of the five senior major championships on the PGA Tour Champions schedule (the event moved to Greystone after five years at Shoal Creek). On residential integration, the club sits inside a gated community of executive homes -- 24-hour security, gated entrances with attendants -- spanning roughly 1,400 homes across its Founders and Legacy sections, and the Legacy Course has been separately recognized on Golfweek's Top 100 Residential Courses list, a specific third-party acknowledgment of the course's residential-community design intent rather than just its playing quality. Former Chicago Bulls star Michael Jordan lived in Greystone's gated Shandwick Place neighborhood in 1994 while playing minor-league baseball for the Birmingham Barons, a frequently-cited notable-resident fact.
