Artesia, MS 39736(Lowndes County)

The 20 acre lake was built around 2009. It is stocked with bass and bream and has excellent bass fishing. Bass weighing 5-8 lbs. are caught on a regular basis. In the winter, it attracts ducks and geese almost every day. In addition, there is a 2.5 acre pond on the front of the property which is stocked with channel catfish and bream summer. The farm has a great trail system and you can ride to all parts of the property. Deer hunting is fantastic with numerous deer scoring 160-180 taken on the property and within a mile over the last few years. There is a healthy turkey population, and the hardwood areas are full of white faced fox squirrels.

The guest house sits atop of a large cypress barn. It was finished in January 2017 and has 3 Bedrooms/1 Bath, real wood floors, 9 ceilings, solid wood doors, and vaulted tongue and groove cypress ceilings in the living room/kitchen. It is well-insulated and has a gas tankless water heater. The elevated porch measures 15 x 25 and is a fantastic place to entertain, cook and look out over the lake and surrounding area. Propane is hard lined to the porch for your grill from a 1000 gallon tank. The view from this porch out over the lake and land is so serene and just awesome.

The total area of the cypress barn is 50 x 90. A 50 x 50 area is enclosed on a concrete slab, and has 13 ceilings. Within this enclosed area are an office, half bath, and large storage room with built-in shelves. Salvaged tin is on the ceiling which gives the main floor of the barn a nice custom feel. The 50 x 40 covered area is graveled and used for equipment storage. High output lighting was used throughout the barn, making it bright enough to work on equipment at night; and all wiring is in metal conduit.
