Property Description

ONE PROPERTY. MULTIPLE POSSIBILITIES. This 147 acre historic estate in Forest, Mississippi combines a Colonial Revival residence, equestrian facilities, wedding and event venue potential, guest cottages, rental opportunities, and a 7 acre stocked lake. At its heart is The Denton, a stately Colonial Revival home featuring a four column facade and Juliet balcony. Inside, original oak hardwood floors, custom woodwork, full length wood framed windows, formal sitting and dining rooms, and a richly paneled room showcase the home's character. The spacious kitchen offers room for gatherings, while the primary suite features a distinctive hammered copper soaking tub. The main residence includes 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 2 half baths. Two separate two bedroom guest cottages offer additional accommodations or rental potential. A separate office building with an upstairs apartment provides flexible space for business operations, lodging, or rental use. A SETTING WITH A HISTORY OF CELEBRATION. The Denton has hosted weddings and special events, offering an established setting to explore as a Mississippi wedding venue, event venue, or hospitality property. For those searching for a Mississippi horse farm or equestrian property, improvements include a 24 stall horse barn, 10 stall barn/breeding facility, oval training track, and additional training areas formerly used in a Tennessee Walking Horse operation. The existing equestrian infrastructure may also lend itself to equine assisted services. A 7 acre stocked lake, workshop, implement sheds, and equipment storage add even more versatility. Historic estate, equestrian property, horse farm, event venue, hospitality concept, or income producing property, The Denton offers multiple possibilities in one setting. Commercial, event, rental, equine assisted services, and other uses are subject to applicable zoning, permitting, licensing, and governmental approval. Buyer to verify intended use.
