Land with Home for Sale in Kosciusko, Mississippi

Welcome to the historic Meek-Hillerman-Steele House at 310 South Natchez Street - a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Kosciusko history. Originally built in 1866 by the Hillerman family, this remarkable postbellum home began as a large single-story residence with a detached kitchen, designed with soaring ceilings and generous attic space to help cool the home long before modern air conditioning. For nearly a century, the original main level served as the family's living quarters. In the late 1970s, decorator Gale Crawley Steele and her husband, Michael Steele, thoughtfully transformed the property through an extensive renovation and expansion. The attic space was so substantial that two additional levels were added, creating room for three additional bedrooms, two baths, and a bonus room while preserving the home's historic character. Throughout the renovation, architectural salvage and antique pieces were carefully sourced from across the Southeast and incorporated into the design. One of the home's most notable features is the stunning spiral staircase in the family room, originally salvaged from a historic shipping vessel and purchased from an antique supplier in Wetumpka, Alabama. Set on a prominent 2.3-acre lot, the property offers a beautiful backyard, detached carport, and rear entrance that complement the home's original architectural style and historic charm. Just beyond the carport, a private courtyard adorned with elegant ironwork creates a truly timeless setting. Properties of this caliber and historical significance rarely become available. This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of Kosciusko's historic treasures. Contact the listing agent for the most current information and showing details.
