Let’s Look Inside East Texas’ Most Famous Chicken Estate

As far as luxury goes, it doesn't get more luxurious than this. The home is described as "Remote, grand, expansive."

It's the type of home most folks only dream of, but that doesn't mean that we can't all appreciate its wonderful beauty.

Located in East Texas, right outside of Pittsburg, TX, this awe-inspiring ornate chateau was once famously owned by the founders of Pilgrim Pride, Mr. and Mrs. Bo Pilgrim.

The house was designed by architect Richard Drummond Davis as a French Renaissance dream home, and features garden views from every room. Sparing no expense, the immaculate grounds were designed by landscape architect Naud Burnett who filled them with "multiple native species of trees, three ponds and streams, a deep water well with crisp fresh water, and a plethora of strikingly beautiful azalea gardens."
