Property Description
In the late 1800’s much of the Southwest Georgia plantation land near Thomasville was acquired by wealthy northerners because of the mild climate, the exceptional hunting and easy access by rail. These properties were changed from working farms into winter residences and operated for recreational purposes, primarily quail and duck hunting. Some of the plantations in this area have been in the same families for more than one hundred years. Hines Hill is one of these properties. The Mandalay parcel was added in the 1970's. The Sellers would retain Mandalay if Buyer wanted to purchase Hines Hill. The price for the 2002 acres of Hines Hill is $13,500,000.
Hines Hill and Mandalay are in proximity and presently operated under one owner. The stately main house and most of the improvements are located on the Hines Hill tract. While Hines Hill contains more hardwood areas for deer and turkey along with several lakes, the larger tract known as Mandalay is one of the prettiest quail places one will ever see. The two combined provide a rich diversity of land types with a variety of scenery, fish and wildlife.
Some of the plantations nearby include Foshalee, Horseshoe, Pebble Hill, Willow Oak, Rosemary, Cherokee Melrose, Beverly, Twin Oaks and Springwood.
