For Sale: 1860 Antebellum Mansion

[@monicacall7532]

This is one of the BEST houses you’ve ever visited. Everything about it says “understated elegance”-the beautiful bannister, the lovely mantelpieces, the plasterwork, the natural light courtesy of the windows and especially the beautiful furniture. Less is definitely more in this case. The Georgian/Federal style never goes out of style and elevates any room. How on earth did we go from this beautiful style of architecture and furnishings to the dark, heavy, overly decorated (an understatement), oppressive Victorian style that was the antithesis of good taste?

[@angiejohnson6666]

Beautiful home 🏡 💕

[@RHoDS713]

I love the old floorplans we see in this style of home. I miss having walls to place furniture and artwork and family photos. The rooms flow easily from one to another but there is a sense of function to each. I am done with my "open concept" floorplan where my living-room-is-my-kitchen-is-my-dining-room. I remember going out to my great-grandfather's farmhouse (rural Louisiana) and the floorplan was exactly as this home and as a child absolutely loving the wide center hallway with the wide wood planks where we would "skate" in our socks (except it wasn't nearly as opulent as this of course!).

[@MountainPearls]

I’m tired of it too. Especially the kitchen. The smells get everywhere and you feel like you are on top of each other.

[@kathypiccone]

I agree about open floor plans.

[@AlyKatKitty]

Right?!

[@DoodlePoodle199]

I live in a 2001 open floor plan house and love the house, but there are cons to the openness. My dream is to live in a historical home with somewhat more separated rooms. Even the house I grew up in built in 1980 had separate rooms all throughout!

[@armandomolina2096]

I fall in love with this house...... furrniture and everything amazing..... greetings from sonora mexico

[@robobee1707]

Love, love, love this house, it feels like a home and not a museum.

[@saraa3418]

I'd love it if you visited historic buildings and homes in all 50 states doing tours like this! I know it's unlikely, but it would be fun to see what you'd make of different locations styles and variations.

[@audrab27]

How would they narrow it down. We have a lovely home back home called the Russ House it has an assorted backstory and located in Marianna Fl

[@saraa3418]

This is one of my absolute favourites that you've shown so far! Not just wonderful architecture but beautiful decor as well.

[@nancydrew5]

Laine You are an excellent guide. Knowing when to speak, and when to let the house speak for itself. Your commentary is superb. You never overtalk and your enunciation is as elegant and enthralling as the homes you show. You are far far above any house host I've seen on HGTV. Restoration Narion is a superb show and is the platinum standard of showcasing historical homes.

[@OurRestorationNation]

Wow, thank you!

[@dwighthill4548]

This is my favorite home, it is opulent, elegant, with attention to every detail. This is just amazing to see how well the restoration was accomplished. Thanks for the marvelous opportunity to see and enjoy this home.

[@christinetrewin9717]

Of all the homes you have toured this is the first one that I have said,yes I could live there. I live in France where there are some amazing properties but I could not see living there. Having owned an historic home I know the problems involved. So this one is amazing with many possibilities 😎😍🇫🇷

[@Thathappylifter_]

This is my 1st time visiting this channel. I recently bought my 1st house, the deed goes back to 1886, and I’ve been working on fixing all of the shortcuts, finding treasures in the walls and floors, things I’d never find if I hired someone to do the work. I brought them into the historical society today & found out my house was originally built in 1860, Greek revival, with a Queen Anne porch. I’ve been collecting furniture, and most of my stuff is Georgian style, to see someone as excited as you are-as I feel-I just really really hope you have an opportunity to sleep in that princess bed. I’d binge watch you give a tour about the furnishings in this house for hours. I love how excited you are about this home and paused this video many many times. Thank you to the people who did the work to restore this stunning home, & for allowing it to be shared.

[@honethcornejo9462]

Obrigada pela postagem. Essa de todas as mansões que vi até agora é a minha favorita. Belíssima com uma opulência de saltar aos olhos. Amei os móveis da sala de jantar. Tenho uma igualzinha em minha casa , CHIPANDELLE é um dos estilos que mais gosto. A parte externa é linda, não faltando nem o chafariz que tanto procuro para os pássaros livres beberem água. Excelente cicerone, mostra com paciência sempre ao som de uma bela música.

[@monicacall7532]

I also love Chippendale furniture along with Adams and Sheridan styles. They have clean, elegant lines and never go out of style. Victorian styles of furniture are so dark, heavy and are decorated to the hilt. They oppress me.

[@heartslessons6243]

You guys are like my travel guide. I don't need to go anywhere because you are taking me along with you to see the areas and home's. Thank you.

[@carrierockwell2447]

Thank you thank you thank you for all your preservation work. OMG my great aunt had that beautiful pink marble with gold veins running through all throughout her master bath in BelAire, California. She purchased the home from the Astor estate in the 70’s. She kept all the original features, original murals and had her decorator create wonderful comfortable furniture pieces that fit beautifully in with the architecture of the home. As is customary now to So. Cal. developers came in and demolished the entire house, without any regard to historical value. Several of my aunts houses had been featured in Architectural Digest in the 50’s 60’s and 70’s. She passed in the 80’s and the Astor house was sold. It went into disrepair was sold a few more times until it was torn down. I have often wondered what they did with all that pink marble.

First of all, I love your blouse, Laine! We are so fortunate that you are spending enough time in Natchez to uncover these special gems that one might overlook on a quick visit. It's so interesting to learn about the architectural features of homes in different parts of the country. The ceiling medallions are terrific in this one. I'm curious about what appear to be closed transoms above the double doors...do they open too? The decor style is indeed classic and restful. Nothing out of place, nothing too ornate or heavy. Charming! Thank you.

This property is nothing short of spectacular. I wish I had the cash on hand to buy this amazing property and ALL of the exquisite furnishings.

The two cottages for rent on the property, still provide income, but look out of place to me.
