Gravel Hill Plantation sits directly across the road from this country homesite, and the entire Augusta Stagecoach Road area adjacent consists of thousands and thousands of acres of large plantations and privately owned tracts that make up one of the best areas to own land in the region. The home itself, historically referred to as the Maner/Garnett House of Webb Wildlife Managememt Area, or the John King Garnett House, comes with a long book of documented history, dating back to the Civil War era. It reads that the original house was burned and destroyed in late January 1865, by Union troops during General Shermans march to the sea. It was rebuilt after the Civil War, then renovated and added onto in the 1920s. Its Colonial Revival Style has been preserved through the years since then. Sometime around 1999, it was moved about a mile down the road, to its current location. It was then renovated and remodeled in 2001-2002, and has since been very well kept and maintained. It was occupied full-time by the owners for years, and recently has been rented out as the main lodge for a large hunting operation. It can house a large number of guests with 5 bedrooms, 3 1/2 bathrooms, a large working kitchen and dining area, and ample common area space to sleep plenty of people if needed. There are beautiful antique wood floors, walls, trim and staircase, granite tops, custom cabinetry, brick fireplace, and many other unique interior and exterior finishes throughout. Theres a large iconic porch that wraps around the majority of the home, with a large screened in area on one side. Theres planted rows of live oaks, a large loop driveway, concrete patios, and a shooting lane area. Theres plenty of open space here to create what you want, whether its a horse or animal farm, field or open pasture areas, planted gardens, trees, or other vegetation, or maybe some type of special venue. This would also be a great opportunity for a country bed & breakfast, or something similar if desired. Please contact the listing broker for more information or to schedule a private showing today.
