MUST SEE! 1838 Greek Revival Mansion

Welcome to Green Leaves, our Natchez dream home! You know we love historic architecture, but this home takes that love one step further. This home has been owned by 7 generations of the same family, and contains seven generations of love and tangible family memories.

Purchased by the Koontz family in 1849 this home retains all of its original finishes. Wallpaper, carpets, draperies and furnishings remain as they have been for 180 years. Each generation has added to the art and ephemera collections, and now Green Leaves feels like a warm family home with museum worthy collections.

The treasures found in this historic home don't stop at the interior. The grounds are some of the most beautiful in the city, featuring a wide variety of specialty Camelia bushes, each mapped and marked for its genus, species, and location of acquisition. Off the large galleries on the front and rear of the home are enormous live oaks, and magnolias, which shade the croquet lawn and the first residential swimming pool in Natchez.

There are historic homes, and then there are historic dream homes. Join fifth generation owner Ruthie as she opens her home and shares her family treasures and memories with you.

You can visit Green Leaves in person from now until the end of April, 2023. Green Leaves is a private home, and normally closed to the public, however, it is open for Spring Pilgrimage tours and tickets can be purchased at natchezpilgrimage.com
