Longleaf

Longleaf is a beautiful and exceptionally improved 1,282 acre recreational property in the Albany, Georgia quail belt and features the quintessential wiregrass and longleaf pine landscape. Much of Longleaf borders, and was once part of, the 30,000 acre Ichauway - long-term chairman of The Coca-Cola Company, Robert Woodruffs quail hunting preserve, and now The Jones Ecological Research Center.

Magnificent live oaks just inside the entrance command pause as one pulls through the gate and drives down the mile-long driveway to the main house. The property features a 6,000 square foot classical-style house, a rustically renovated barn serving as a three-bedroom/three-bath guest house, modern six-stall stable, state-of-the-art 20-run dog kennel, and carriage barn, in addition to farm-operation buildings, all thoughtfully designed and immaculately maintained.
