**490 Middle River Road, Americus, GA** Custom 2004 home on 43 acres of rolling Sumter County land - built for a large family that wants room to live, hunt, and play. A long private driveway winds through mature oaks and hardwoods and opens onto beautiful rolling topography. The setting feels tucked away, yet you're still convenient to Americus, Southland Academy, and everyday needs. The home offers **7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms** with space for a big household, guests, and weekend company. It is being sold **fully furnished**, so the next family can move in and start living. Outside, a duck pond, established food plots, stands, and feeders already support abundant wildlife, including trophy deer. This is a working hunting property, not a blank canvas. A **3,000 sq. ft. insulated warehouse** gives you serious storage and shop space. Tractor and yard equipment convey with the home, so you can keep the grounds and plots in shape from day one. This is the rare combination buyers look for in Southwest Georgia: a real custom home, enough bedrooms for a large family, recreation land that already hunts, water on the property, and the outbuildings and equipment to go with it. Shown by appointment. Contact for details and to schedule a private tour.
