Property Description
A lineage of incredible history abounds this breathtaking property. Where family chronicles fill the walls within and sweep the sprawling terrain from nearly a century ago! You absolutely don't want to miss a chance of experiencing the story behind this southern colonial plantation home and take the opportunity to carry on the legacy this family miraculously created during WWII. The original home was purchased 6 generations prior, along with nearly 40 acres, some of which contained access to Greenville County's earliest filtration plants dating back to the very early 1900s. Though the plant has been inoperable since the 70's, it still stands as a lovely historic monument. As that generation passed, another stepped forward to honor and preserve the memories of years past. The home was then transformed and acreage subdivided leaving the remaining 5 acres that now accompanies this picturesque southern American charm. Carefully reconstructing the home to add necessities of its time but still incorporating special features from earlier years, where the last generation would call home. The original architectural design was kept in the center of the home, where later years would be added a large, modernized kitchen, great room, sunroom, & screen porch. The grand central entrance and double porches were a hallmark of homes during this period, adding to the homes luxurious grandeur and expanded outdoor living space. A classic color scheme gives the elegance that will stand the test of time. A portion of beautiful artifacts remain from the original circa 1940's home and incorporated flawlessly, from the porcelain cast iron claw foot tub, to the exquisite detail of the wooden switchback staircase, trim work, & wood floors throughout entirety. The exquisite home became a pillar of the community and all who knew the family. Memories of past filled this abode and rolling hills with love and laughter. The land kept many livestock, horses, and even a cow throughout decades. Preserves were adored by all and made from the fig tree that still stands out back. Every family gathering, every holiday and birthday, every happy occasion and every challenging one was where this family returned home. While these memories were a significant part of each generation's story, we are confident that this home will serve many more blessings in the coming future. Here's your chance to make something meaningful in the most perfect location full of life again. Such a rarity to be able to have this opportunity, in going back in time to live the lifestyle we wish we all had once more! Travel back and experience the tour today. Your love CAN do miracles!
