Full Description: THE house that everyone talks about in Ridgeland: historically chic, full of fun and close to everything in downtown, the Long House offers almost unlimited possibilities. Originally two residences, built in 1880 and 1910, this home was most notably used as a boarding house for area teachers. Now a fabulous family home, this property still offers unique potential. The current owners have spent the past five years renovating this unique property with a whimsical eye and loving hand. The kitchen is modern and completely functional for a large family with a restaurant size, double bowl, stainless steel sink, lots of butcher block counter top space, a Jenn-Air gas range, and stainless refrigerator. Family members and guests alike can pull up a stool at the galvanized tin-topped bar, or enjoy the sunny, built-in banquette. Every window in the home has also been recently replaced. History is everywhere you turn: the original pine floors are in excellent condition, and real tongue-in-groove bead boarding covers a multitude of surfaces from walls to ceilings. The home’s current side entry opens into a great gathering hall from which you may access sleeping rooms and living areas. The original staircase treads have been painted in a black and white harlequin pattern, echoing the whimsy of the six bedrooms, each decorated with flourish and style. The home also boasts seven original fireplaces. The home is situated on approximately +/- one acre. The property line adjoins that of the Wise House, which is also currently offered for sale by Cora Bett Thomas Realty. With great improvements including the addition of brick sidewalks, lamp posts and the planting of palm trees, present-day Historic Downtown Ridgeland harkens back to its Post-Civil War glory days. In addition to aesthetic enhancements the town is also concerned with progressing the quality of life of its citizens, recently building a nature trail surrounding a two acre lake in town. Ridgeland continues to undergo economic changes to draw in small and large business alike. Ridgeland prides itself on its “Old Values” and its “New Vision”. Ridgelanders are very supportive of local businesses. In addition to the Jasper County School System which recently built a new high school campus, Ridgeland is home to the highly regarded private Thomas Heyward Academy which serves grades kindergarten through twelve. |
