Land with Home for Sale in Garnett, South Carolina

Woodside Plantation is located in Hampton County, South Carolina and is an extraordinary 494 +/- acre sporting estate, offering a unique combination of historic Southern elegance and fabulous improvements, world-class hunting habitat, and a refined Lowcountry lifestyle. The Plantation was originally part of a vast 75,000-acre land grant dating to 1737, placing the property squarely within the earliest chapters of South Carolina's Lowcountry history. Fronting along Augusta Stagecoach Road and surrounded by some of the region's most storied sporting Plantation properties, Woodside immediately conveys a sense of arrival and legacy. You're welcomed into the property down a breathtaking three-quarter-mile live oak alley that guides you to a Colonial Revival Plantation home constructed in 1871. The home is a timeless centerpiece that recalls the golden age of Southern Plantations and has been thoughtfully and tastefully renovated to provide modern comfort and amenities. Surrounded by centuries old live oaks, the plantation home features a modern kitchen with high end appliances, formal dining room, five generous bedrooms with four full bathrooms and two half bathrooms, multiple fireplaces, wide plank hardwood floors, copper roof, exceptional cypress finishes, fixtures, and unique architectural features found throughout. A fire pit and pool sits in the side yard and is perfect for entertaining. Adjacent to the main Plantation house are a three bedroom managers house, the pond house, and equestrian and farm facilities creating a gracious courtyard setting around the Plantation home. The pond house is an ideal structure for guests and features one bedroom, full kitchen, full bathroom and large porches overlooking the horse paddocks, greenhouse and fenced vegetable garden, and pristine 3.75 +/- acre bass pond. The property boasts multiple locations for outdoor cooking, entertaining and meeting spaces. At its core, Woodside Plantation is a true quail property, carefully curated to deliver an authentic, old-fashioned Southern quail hunting experience. Expansive and impeccably maintained quail woods feature established courses that replicate the conditions of classic, Plantation bird hunting. Mule-drawn wagons carrying fine bird dogs move seamlessly through the landscape, while hunters follow on horseback, enjoying explosive coveys of early-release quail rising against a backdrop of towering piney woods and ag fields. The property's "hunting barn" serves as the social heart of the operation, complete with gun locker, UTV storage and a large dining area where stories are shared, lunches are served, and the rhythm of the hunt begins and ends each day. Supporting the sporting and agricultural operations are equestrian and farm facilities, including a 90' x 50' horse barn, 15 +/- acres of fenced paddocks, and a one-acre riding arena. Approximately 132 +/- acres of tillable fields provide flexibility for farming or can be planted to enhance quail habitat, further strengthening the property's sporting potential. Additional improvements include multiple pole barns, a professional woodworking shed, grain bins, and numerous support structures that allow Woodside to be self sufficient. Beyond quail, Woodside offers outstanding year-round recreational opportunities. A 3.75 +/- acre bass pond sits just behind the main plantation house, creating a serene backdrop for afternoons on the porch, while approximately nine acres of flooded, planted, and controlled waterfowl impoundments provide excellent duck hunting for wood ducks and other migrating species. The property is richly timbered, with a healthy mix of hardwoods and mature pines, and is threaded with an expansive, well-maintained internal road system that makes every corner of the Plantation easily accessible. This is a game rich environment and is well rounded in quality habitat for whitetail, wild turkeys, doves, wild hogs, quail, ducks, and small game.
