Richland
A Historic Southern Estate
Step back in time at Richland, a remarkable circa 1848 estate set among 240 acres of rolling countryside, towering hardwoods, and historic Southern landscape. From the moment you arrive through the breathtaking live oak canopy entrance and dedicated gatehouse, which includes a kitchen, living area, full bathroom and 2 bedrooms, it is clear Richland is a property of rare character and significance.
A picturesque drive lined with majestic hardwood timber and blooming azaleas leads to the stately home, which sits proudly on the highest point of the property, offering commanding presence and sweeping views across the surrounding land.
The original detached brick kitchen, still standing today, offers a rare and authentic glimpse into the property's rich history and has now been converted into additional living quarters with kitchen, bedroom, and full bath.
The residence encompasses 6,500 square feet of living space, blending historic charm with modern comfort. A full-length covered front porch stretches across the front of the home, providing the perfect setting for gatherings, evening conversations, quiet reflection, or simply enjoying the tranquility of the countryside.
Inside, the first-floor features spacious living areas including a kitchen, formal dining room, front parlor, and main living room. The primary suite offers a private retreat complete with its own sitting room and a beautifully remodeled bath featuring custom handmade tile work.
The second-floor hosts four generously sized bedrooms, each with its own private bath, creating an inviting space for family and guests.
Beyond the home, the land offers remarkable versatility and beauty. Of the 240 acres, more than 70 acres are improved pasture, with the remainder consisting of mature hardwood timber, rolling topography, and scattered open fields. The property presents endless possibilities--from a working cattle operation to a private recreational retreat. The five ponds scattered across the property, provide Wood Duck habitat, a valuable water source for wildlife, along with opportunities for fishing and year-round entertainment.
Richland is widely recognized for its exceptional wildlife habitat, supporting strong populations of trophy whitetail deer, turkey, and small game. The pasture areas provide excellent opportunities for dove fields and seasonal plantings such as spring soybeans and corn while enhancing nutrition and insuring an optimal ecosystem for the native wildlife.
As a charming and memorable touch, the property also includes its beloved resident pigs, Rusty and Peanut, longtime inhabitants of this special place.
Richland represents a rare opportunity to own a historic Southern estate where architecture, land, wildlife, and heritage come together in one extraordinary setting.
