Does security, privacy, nature, and stunning views with the freedom to expand without hassle speak to you? Nestled in the heart of Bird Song Hollow at the foot of the iconic Natchez Trace Double Arch Bridge is Natchez Valley, a 24/7 gated, 215- acre nature sanctuary of only 19 estates. Wishing Trees is situated in the center of this exclusive community on a premium lot, and offers European elegance, and architectural mastery, drawing inspiration from the rich traditions of England, France, and Italy. This exquisite, elegant home showcases a harmonious blend of brick and stone, complemented by wood exterior elements. Its striking steep rooflines and two-story turret, featuring dormer details, create a captivating silhouette against the surrounding lush woodland and formal gardens, with a dry/wet stream that runs the width of the property. The exterior showcases formal English garden designs, a courtyard parterre designed by the head gardener from the late Oscar de La Renta’s estate, romantic growing vines, and roses which transport you to a storybook cottage in the Cotswold’s. Enveloped in lush mature landscaping, a secret garden with pergola, architectural stone garden elements, topiaries, mature trees and rolling hills not only elevate the beauty and charm of the estate but also significantly increases its value according to experts such as Charlie Munger, Vice Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway. The homeowners here self-manage the HOA which permit farm animals, and just recently voted to also include chickens. See the HOA documents on this site. Building codes allow for further expansion to this property if desired such as adding an out-building, detached garage or studio, and even a swimming pool. This friendly community of entrepreneurs has a private Facebook group page for residents to communicate, and share service provider recommendations etc. We elect among ourselves, president, treasurer, etc. There are no rental restrictions. Very low real estate taxes are only $6,000 annually – the tax band rate transfers to the new owner.

The professional interior design decor reflects an admiration for culture, color, and the emotional connection that unites them.
