Property Description
Located in historic Wilson, Arkansas, this restored 7,218± square-foot, four-bedroom, four-and-a-half bath antebellum-style home sits on 25± beautiful acres, eight of which are in row crop production. Built in the 1930s by Jim Crain, this historic estate was designed to be a showstopper, from the front entrance to the front door and beyond. Jim Crain and Robert Lee Wilson, Jr. ran the Lee & Wilson Company, based in Wilson, which, at the time, amassed 65,000± acres of row crop land. To this day, the Crain family still owns thousands of acres of farmland in the state. The 550± foot, oak-lined drive epitomizes a Southern manor and leads you to the doorsteps of its Classical Revival home, featuring two-story squared Doric columns. If you are a wings shooter, the property also boasts a highly productive dove field. As you walk out the back door, you will find a charming courtyard lined with magnolia trees, aptly named "Magnolia Alley," complemented by a stunning backdrop view of a beautiful lake and golf course built by business mogul Gaylon Lawrence. Several years ago, he transformed the town, bringing commerce and infrastructure, including a luxury hotel, restaurants, shops, and even wine tastings.
