Plantations in NC(RECENTLY OFF MARKET-CALL FOR DETAILS)The Magnolia sits on 174 acres of prime Johnston County land and has one of the most beautiful countryside settings in the state. The history of the home goes back to 1875 and although mostly rebuilt, fireplaces and mantels and other original fabric still exist. The setting is indescribable. You are greeted with a large and private gated entrance directly from Cornwallis Road and the enticing aroma of the towering magnolias that frame the front of the home lend thoughts of the days of old, and how it must have been at this special location in Gods country. The South just imagine waking or riding horses here each day with amazing sunrises and sunsets, long views of the open fields, towering timber, and kids fishing in the large lake. The grounds and amenities are immaculate and well maintained, and the level of landscaping that surrounds the pool, barn, and fencing really make the setting stand out.

There is a nice gazebo by the private lake, and wildlife abounds here with wild geese, turkey and deer.

The fencing carves perfect lines in field areas for all of the animals, and the barn with multiple stalls and the separate garage/shop area have all the space for the horses and recreational vehicles. Tall timber stands border the open pasture areas and have significant timber value. There are two nice rental homes on the property as well that bring in monthly income.
