This historic compound includes a historic home, a guest cottage, a spacious barn, four board fencing with generous paddocks and coastal Bermuda pastures.
It offers both the two and four legged residents a very unique place to call home.
Located in Hagood, South Carolina, near Camden, this antebellum estate is situated on forty acres of rich alluvial land and originally produced cotton and food crops.
Today, this historic site is evolving into a state of the art breeding and training facility. With Phase I nearing completion and Phase II scheduled to begin spring 2007, Three Palms Arabians welcomes the opportunity to provide the discriminating equine connoisseur with the finest straight Egyptian Arabian horses available.
From The National Register of Historic Places website:
Magnolia Hall, in the rural community of Hagood, is significant as an example of a typical, if restrained, mid-nineteenth century Greek Revival plantation house built ca. 1821 and altered in 1855 and 1860. It is also significant for its association with Dr. Swepson H. Saunders, a prominent cotton planter of antebellum Sumter District and post-Civil War Sumter County. The house as built in 1821 consisted of the present dining room, kitchen, porch, bedroom, and parlor. Between 1853 and 1860, Dr. Saunders added onto the existing house with elements of an elevated façade and a full façade front porch with detached columns, adding four large bed rooms with the spacious hall and the front piazza with overhanging roof structure to accommodate the Saunders’ growing family of fourteen children. With this addition, the axial orientation and front of the house shifted from a northern to a western exposure. In the early 1900s, a tornado removed the front porch roof, which was replaced in a style of that time period, leaving the rafter tails on the porch exposed. Outbuildings contributing to the historic character of the property include a weatherboard sided, lateral gabled, double-pen former slave dwelling, a gable-front detached kitchen, and a two-story, gable-front frame barn. Listed in the National Register September 2, 1999.
