Now this feels like a Deal of the Day.
An 1841 Greek Revival home, nearly 2,900 square feet, beautiful historic details, and listed for just $219,000?
That price is definitely going to get old-house lovers talking.
Known as “The McCrosky Place,” this historic home in Holly Springs, Mississippi offers a rare chance to own an antebellum property with a long history — and according to the listing, you would become only the fifth owner since the home was built.
That alone says a lot.
Historic Charm Since 1841
Built in 1841, this stunning Greek Revival home still holds onto so much of its original character while blending in thoughtful updates for modern living.
Inside, you’ll find:
- Beautiful wood floors
- A pretty staircase
- Elegant crown moulding
- Wide baseboards
- Original mantels
- Floor-to-ceiling built-in bookshelves
- Custom drapes
- A classic claw foot tub
And from the sound of it, that soaring foyer makes quite a first impression.
Historic homes from this era often have incredible proportions, and this one appears to deliver.
Updated Kitchen + Historic Character
The home also includes a custom-designed updated kitchen, featuring:
- Granite countertops
- Gas range
- Brand-new refrigerator
- Thoughtful storage
- Attractive fixtures
It feels like a nice balance of preserving history while making daily life more functional.
The restored chimneys with ventless logs add even more character and cozy atmosphere.
The Porch Looks Like a Winner
Can we talk about the back porch for a second?
The L-shaped porch sounds like the kind of place where you could easily spend evenings relaxing, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying a quiet Mississippi sunset.
The property also includes:
- Wrought iron fencing
- A detached storage shed
- Extended driveway
- Private outdoor space on a 0.5-acre lot
Historic Home, Big Value
The home offers:
- Three bedrooms
- Three bathrooms
- Approximately 2,870 square feet
And here’s the part that may really catch attention:
According to the listing, the property is reportedly priced below a late-2025 appraisal, potentially giving the next owner instant equity.
Of course, the listing also notes the home could use some TLC and personal touches, but honestly, for a house built in 1841, that feels expected.
And at $219,000, many buyers may feel there’s room to invest in updates while preserving its incredible history.
A Rare Piece of Mississippi History
Historic homes this old — especially with preserved architectural details and ownership history — don’t come around every day at this price point.
