WELCOME TO THE SCOTT 96.15, A RETREAT DESIGNED FOR COUNTRY LIVING
AT ITS BEST. The 96.15± acre gated property is landscaped and features a secluded drive that
leads to a 3,500± square foot custom home built in 2016. Set among thinned plantation pines
and overlooking a 10± acre lake, the setting feels like your private state park. The Scott County
property is 4.3± miles south of Morton and 12.5± miles southwest of Pelahatchie, MS.
The home offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with a thoughtful layout that combines
comfort and function. The oversized primary suite includes a spacious bath with double vanities,
a walk-in shower, a tub, and a large closet with built-ins connecting to the utility room. On the
opposite side of the house, you'll find two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a mudroom.
The heart of the home is the open kitchen and living area, with granite countertops, KitchenAid
appliances, and a gas fireplace. A heated and cooled sunroom extends off the living room and
provides some of the best views of the property.
Outdoor features include large, covered porches, a three-car garage, and an outdoor kitchen with
sinks and cabinet space. There is also an outdoor shower and bathroom for added convenience.
The exterior construction combines hardy board and brick with a metal roof, gutters with leaf
protectors, and a full security system with cameras. For guests, a private suite is available with its
own full bathroom, closet, and central heat and air. Additional improvements include a hobby
shed with utilities, a 24'x50' covered shed with partial concrete, and a cypress barn with feed
stalls and an enclosed section with concrete flooring.
The highlight of the land is the 10± acre lake, stocked with F-1 Tiger Bass and bream. It has been
properly managed and fertilized, and the results show. The owners have caught 30+ bass over nine
pounds! The back portion of the property consists of 47± acres of 19-year-old plantation pine.
The pine was site-prepared before planting and underwent thinning in 2018. Surrounding the
home, the property has been well maintained, offering an appealing and picturesque setting. The
remaining timberland includes a diverse mix of pine and young hardwood stands. Additionally,
there are two areas for small wildlife plots for deer and turkey. The front portion of the property
consists of 9±-year-old plantation pine, further contributing to the overall wildlife habitat. The
property's perimeter is enclosed by panel wiring with a section of cross-fencing in place. If you're
looking for privacy, recreation, and a well-kept homeplace, the Scott 96.15 checks every box.
