Richland is a remarkable circa-1848 historic estate that sits on approximately 240 acres of rolling countryside, mature hardwoods, and improved pastureland, offering a rare opportunity to own a piece of Southern heritage paired with exceptional recreational land.
A breathtaking live oak canopy welcomes you as you enter through the private gate and charming gatehouse, which features two bedrooms, a full bathroom, kitchen, and comfortable living space--ideal for guests, caretakers, or additional accommodations.
A scenic drive lined with towering hardwoods and blooming azaleas leads to the stately Greek Revival main residence, positioned on the highest point of the property to capture sweeping views of the surrounding landscape. The estate also includes the original detached brick kitchen, a charming historic structure offering a full kitchen, spacious living area, bedroom, and full bath perfect as a guest cottage or private retreat.
The nearly 6,500 square foot main house blends historic character with modern comfort. A full-length covered front porch stretches across the front of the home, creating an inviting setting for entertaining or relaxing while enjoying the peaceful countryside.
Inside, the first-floor features expansive living areas including a large kitchen, formal dining room, elegant front parlor, and main living room. The formal dining room has French doors that open to spacious screened in porch and terrace. The primary suite offers a private retreat complete with a large sitting room, separate bedroom, and beautifully remodeled bath featuring custom handmade tile.
The main staircase leads upstairs where you will find four spacious bedrooms each with private en-suite baths that are arranged around a large mezzanine landing, providing comfortable accommodations for family and guests.
The surrounding 240 acres offer exceptional versatility, including over 70 acres of improved pasture and the balance in mature hardwood timber, rolling terrain, and open fields. The property is well known for its outstanding wildlife habitat, supporting healthy populations of whitetail deer, turkey, and small game.
A total of 5 ponds enhance the property, providing water sources for wildlife along with opportunities for fishing, wood duck hunting, and year-round enjoyment.
Richland is a truly special property where historic Southern elegance, recreational land, and natural beauty come together to create an extraordinary private estate.
