Much of the home remains as it was over two hundred years ago in spite of several additions. This historic treasure offers 5 bedrooms and 3 baths in roughly 5,000 square feet of living area. Situated on 14 beautiful acres in a nice part of rural Amite County, this classic plantation home lies approximately 20 minutes west of Interstate 55 and Magnolia, Mississippi.
