Property Description
Welcome to breathtaking, Sub Rosa (''under the roses'') Plantation. Postal coded as ''Jackson'' but considered the community of Pocahontas, MS, just a smidge South of the Madison County line. This historic mansion was built in 1849-1852, expanded in the mid 1970's and has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 28, 1975. The main house, guest house, exterior structures and grounds have been meticulously maintained with 223+/- total acres that includes Prime Deer and Turkey hunting! The property was originally part of a Civil War era plantation. The house was one of the few that was not burned during Grant's Vicksburg campaign.
The gated entrance ushers you into the enchanted estate under a canopy of huge oaks, pines and bodock trees. Peaceful, green pasture, a cobblestone creek bed and large azalea bushes hug the pathway welcoming guests to the main house. The sparkling pond is stocked with bream and bass.
Sub Rosa makes a statement when approaching its stunning Greek Revival architectural style. The massive front porch was made for relaxing with a refreshing Mint Julep.
The main house has 6104sf with 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and 1 half bath powder room. Entering into the 2 story foyer the grand, cherry wood spiral staircase is captivating. Don't miss the glass front shadow box under the stairs that showcases the original wall construction where gaps between the wood were filled with a mud/clay/straw combination.
The first floor contains the foyer/parlor, formal dining room, formal living room, powder room, morning room with wet bar which overlooks the back courtyard and covered porch, breakfast room with elevator, kitchen, office, TV family room, Master bedroom and ensuite.
Original heart of pine flooring throughout the living and dining areas. The banquet dining room is approximately 22' x 20' and overlooks the front porch and pool area. The kitchen has granite counter tops and the original apothecary station from Jones Drug Store in Canton and is about 140 years old! The storage in the kitchen, office and master ensuite will amaze you.
The spiral staircase leads to the upstairs parlor. The parlor has French doors that open onto the Veranda with breathtaking views of SubRosa! Off the upper parlor are 2 huge bedrooms, both with 2 closets and a fireplace. Stepping down the steps from the upper parlor there are 2 more bedrooms, a hallway with tons of storage and 2 full bath rooms. Home has new Generac home generator and Geothermal renewable energy!
The grounds surrounding the main house include a 1200sf Guest Cottage with covered carport. Barn with 3 stalls, tack room, floored 2nd story for hay and easy access drop spots into stalls, and huge east and west side storage areas. The adorable horse carriage is negotiable! Front and back pastures around the barn. Large utility with workshop area and room to store all your outdoor toys and equipment. There is another small cottage by the barn that would be a great playhouse!
Take notice of the charming grape arbor and English garden as you make your way to the Orchard. The fruit and nut orchard has apple, pear, peach, pecan and black walnut trees! Just past the orchard is the utility shed and mancave. The mancave is the perfect little get-a-way spot for the hunters!
Prime deer and turkey hunting land with manicured lanes and 5 established food plots.
There are even spots for feathered friends! Don't miss the chicken coup and the exotic animal habitat. Garden and compost area for growing all your veggies! Irrigation fed through separate well and pump.
Sub Rosa is truly one of a kind and a must see! Make an appointment to see this historic and enchanting property.
