1296 Old Highway 51, Pickens, MS 39146

8 acres in North Madison County. Peaceful, quite, serene location and only a 23 minute drive to Nissan Parkway, this 3 bedroom/2 bath home is just the right fit for an owner that wants to grow their own vegetables, watch the grass blow in the breeze, or admire the abundant wildlife that lives in the area (Not too far from the Big Black River). Maybe horses or a few head of cattle are in your plans and that's o.k. too as it's zoned agricultural...you decide! This is a one owner custom built home that helped shelter four children and all the memories it holds. The front bedroom window was an escape route for teenage boys looking for mischief at night (don't worry it's double paned now); the wall paper in the bedroom was hung by their mother; and the screened-in side porch provided a cool refuge for summer night sleepers before air conditioning was added. The kitchen served the family well with primitive pine cabinets (plenty of storage for canned goods from the garden) and pine paneling with lots of counter space to whip up some great home cooked meals. All appliances stay. There is a living/dining combination with lots of natural light and a den that's main focus is the large fireplace that provides entry to an outside wood box. The master bedroom has French doors that open onto the porch/bricked patio where the possibilities are endless. There are pecan, walnut and fig trees with southern yard staples like magnolia trees, azaleas, and gardenia bushes. Two sheds in the backyard offer space for tools, farm equipment or toys and additional enclosed storage space is accessible under the covered carport. There are fields to play (plenty of space to build your own soccer, baseball or football field) or space to join the farm-to-table revolution as an artisan food supplier of farm eggs, hand crafted cheeses, or fresh herbs, vegetables and fruit. Maybe, you'd rather sit and watch
