1000 10th Street N, Columbus, MS 39701
Description
Supplements: Circa 1830s | Historic Columbus Estate Setting Set along one of Columbus's most established and storied corridors, this remarkable property traces its origins to the earliest days of the city's development. Believed to date to the 1830s, the homesite is associated with Rev. George Schaeffer--one of Columbus's earliest settlers and a figure instrumental in shaping the community's foundation. Positioned on North 10th Street, an area documented in early maps and Sanborn records as part of the original residential grid, the property reflects a time when homes were intentionally placed for prominence, elevation, and enduring presence. Spanning approximately 3,000 square feet, the residence offers a rare blend of historic character and livable scale, featuring four bedrooms, three baths, and generous living spaces designed for both gathering and quiet retreat. The surrounding acreage--nearly two acres--provides a sense of privacy seldom found within city limits. Mature landscape, architectural presence, and deep-rooted history combine to create a setting that feels both grounded and timeless. Properties of this era, particularly those tied to Columbus's early development, are increasingly rare to bring to market. Whether preserved, restored, or thoughtfully updated, this is an opportunity to steward a piece of Mississippi history--one that continues to hold its place in the story of Columbus.
