Rosswood Plantation

Happy to announce the debut of this remarkable, fine Greek Revival historic mansion, now on the market for the first time in almost 50 years! Located on almost 100 acres in prime timber and hunting country, this rural estate was for many years the famous Rosswood Bed & Breakfast. It can be used as a single family home, bed & breakfast, or a very upscale hunting lodge.

The house has 5 bedrooms and 5-1/2 baths, all within 6,197 of living space. The original floorplan is largely intact, as well as remarkable original, extraordinary architectural features with various forms of intricate, detailed molding.

A generous oak-tree lined drive leads up to the historic house, which is situated squarely in the middle of the almost 100-acre landholding, of which approximately 85 acres is in timber.

This property was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and was named to the prestigious Mississippi Landmark list in 1987. These designations underscore the importance of this famous house and its significance statewide in Mississippi and regionally.

Rosswood has a very rare and unusual feature over the entrance door, the builder/architect of the house - 'David Shroder, Builder '57' signed his name over the door above the inside entrance.

Rosswood is located 30 minutes away from the Natchez-Adams County Airport, 1 hr-30 minutes from the Jackson Regional Airport, and 2 hours from the Baton Rouge airport.
