Holly Hedges Located in the Historic Spanish District of Downtown Natchez, this early 1796 home is noted for its formal gardens and a deed that requires “no bull fighting on these premises.” The home has a grand foyer with double parlors, a gentlemen’s parlor and most notable is the grand ball room with original Zuber wall coverings. The ornate doorways, medallions and crown moldings are breathtakingly beautiful. The property has a separate 3-car garage and guest house. One enjoys the carriages that go by and the 2-block strolls to the Mississippi River. Restored to perfection, this home is so desirable for those that appreciate the antebellum era.
