lot b cunningham slough

Parcel B is a large 25-acre, almost square-shaped wooded parcel, perfect for homestead privacy, getting back to nature, appreciating abundant wildlife, hunting, & enjoying being super-close to 11,400-acre LAKE GREENWOOD- across the street! 90' of road frontage facing the lake means you may decide to take advantage of a home site with a pretty lake view! Enjoy the lake's sparkle and look across the cove to the pretty Ridgewood Harbor community. Lots of planted loblolly timber, white & red oak, shaggy bark hickory, silver bark. This is land with a touch of interesting history! The land and surrounding acreage are believed to be part of the former historic 2100-acre Rosemont Plantation, one of the first “inner” plantations of South Carolina, & birthplace/home to Ann Pamela Cunningham, whose claim to fame stands as founder of the Mount Vernon Ladies Association in 1853, raising enough money by 1858 to purchase George Washington's 100-yr-old Mount Vernon mansion with 200 acres and establish the nation's first (and now oldest) national historic preservation organization. While her Waterloo plantation home was not directly on this land-for-sale, while walking the land, we came across a couple of chimney falls, foundation stones and little bursts of flowering daffodils in the middle of the woods, possible evidence of former home sites on the famous Rosemont Plantation. We also came upon some osage oranges- which used to be used for fence lines. Lots of online history to enjoy by googling either Rosemont Plantation or Ann Pamela Cunningham!
