Property Description

The Bynum-Anderson House | A Southern Treasure in Historic Ellisville Just a short stroll from the heart of downtown Ellisville, Mississippi, This elegant estate rises with quiet Southern landmark and a living piece of Mississippi history. This stately Italianate residence has been lovingly and painstakingly restored by one of his direct descendants of the original family members who built the home circa 1875. What was once a forgotten relic has been revived into one of the most breathtaking historic homes in all of Jones County. Spanning approximately 6,000 square feet, this grand estate blends 19th-century craftsmanship with thoughtful modern comfort. Every restoration choice honors the soul of the home while ensuring it meets the expectations of today's most discerning homeowner. This is not simply a house, it is a legacy. From the moment you step onto the double-tiered porches, trimmed with intricate jigsaw-cut woodwork and painted in traditional ''haint blue,'' you are transported to a gentler time. Towering windows flood the interior with natural light, while the Italianate architectureâ€''low-pitched rooflines, wide eaves, and decorative bracketsâ€''echoes the elegance of the post-Civil War South. If these walls could speak, they would tell stories of generations past, of resilience, celebration, and Southern grace. Inside, the home reveals remarkable original features: hand-carved mantels, transom windows, and 25 double-hung windows designed for passive cooling long before electricity reached Ellisville in 1913. The structure is framed with virgin long-leaf pine, including 30-foot studs that run from the foundation to the rafters, lumber so rich and strong that some pieces still hold their sap over a century later. The layout has been meticulously restored using historic photographs and family records. Antique furnishings from the 1870s, including an eight-foot mirror once used for adjusting petticoats and a documented Eastlake Furniture sales ticket from Chattanooga, lend warmth and authenticity throughout. Four restored brick fireplaces offer cozy comfort in the cooler months, while original sash ropes and transoms allow natural airflow during Mississippi summers. Upstairs, an expansive unfinished fourth floor presents endless possibilities, ideal for a private owner's suite, guest quarters, or additional living space. Elegant clawfoot bathtubs have been restored to perfection, paired with separate showers for modern convenience. A seamless modern addition enhances the home without disrupting its historic integrity. It introduces a light-filled sunroom, two separate kitchens, and generous gathering spaces perfect for entertaining. Step outside to the private in-ground pool, an inviting retreat for warm Southern afternoons, evening swims, or star-lit gatherings with friends and family. With balconies and porches wrapping three sides of the home, every sunrise and sunset can be enjoyed in timeless style, surrounded by the peaceful charm of small-town Ellisville close to larger cities yet far enough away to preserve its warm, welcoming soul. In 2022, the Bynum-Anderson House was proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is the second-oldest surviving home in Ellisville and one of only eleven properties in Jones County to receive this prestigious honor. This is not just ownership, it is stewardship of a rare Southern treasure. Whether you are a lover of history, an admirer of classic architecture, or someone searching for a forever home with soul, this remarkable estate offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true piece of Mississippi heritage. Here, stories live in the walls, beauty lingers in every detail, and new memories are waiting to be written.
