The history of this beautiful home and Family Estate in Scott County, MS, will amaze you for years and generations to come. Located just two minutes from Forest and I-20, this 607+/- acre property features a 4,000 square foot, two-story home that was built in 1873. The house is in excellent condition and has five bedrooms, two parlors, a keeping room, two bathrooms, a kitchen, and covered front porch. Beautiful, majestic, oaks surround and beautifully frame the home, and a two-acre pond behind the house is stocked with bass, bream and catfish! The property is comprised of 100+/- acres of rolling pasture for grazing cattle and hay production; approximately 250+/- acres of pine timber ranging from 18 to 25 years old, and approximately 175+/- acres of mature hardwoods and bottomland timber scattered throughout, providing for excellent game management and nutrition. There are two creeks traversing the property and an excellent, established road system. An additional barn and 1,500 sf camp used as a workshop is also included and could be brought back to standards very quickly and would be an excellent base hunting camp. There are also 100+/- acres of heavily thinned hardwoods that are a great bedding area. The property is abundant with deer and turkey. The Caney Creek, Wildlife Management Area and Bienville National Forest surround the property, offering thousands of acres of additional recreational and hunting opportunities. The views from this property are spectacular, as it is one of the highest points in Scott County. There are approximately 557+/- acres lying to the east of Moore Tower Road and 50+/- acres to the west, providing complete privacy for your family and your investment!
