Seclusaval and Windsor Spring, Historic district in Richmond County, Georgia.
Seclusaval and Windsor Spring is a historic district centered on a 19th-century Greek Revival house with multiple outbuildings on the grounds. The property includes eight additional structures such as a spring house, former slave cabin, smokehouse, and pavilion that served different purposes for the estate.
The property was built in 1843 and later became the headquarters for the Windsor Spring Water Company, which distributed water to several southern cities. The company operated the spring as a commercial venture until the early 2000s.
The main house displays the Sand Hills style, a regional variation of Greek Revival with symmetrical forms and classical columns. This architectural approach was common in the region and still shapes how the place looks today.
The site operates as a private residence and visitors can only view the buildings and spring by appointment with the current owners. It is best to arrange a visit in advance rather than arriving without notice.
A section of the original Tobacco Road passes through the property, preserving the unpaved path where mules once hauled tobacco in barrels. This historic route remains visible today and connects the estate to the trading networks of the past.
