Description

Opportunity meets character in this distinctive downtown property offering space, charm, and exceptional potential. Situated on approximately 1.74 acres, this 2-story home with a partial finished basement features 2,425 square feet above grade plus an additional 1,135 square feet in the basement. Despite its Main Street location, the property offers a sense of privacy, surrounded by mature trees, maintained hedges, and decorative landscaping. Ideally located within a short walk to The Central Roller Mills, restaurants, coffee shops, retail, and event spaces, this home combines convenience with accessibility. Also just a short drive to Clemson. Recent restoration work includes raised ceilings to approximately 12 feet on the main level and 25 feet in the great room, creating an open feel. A rebuilt staircase leads to a versatile loft area with two rooms and a full bath, suitable for office, study, playroom, or potential additional bedrooms. The kitchen features updated cabinetry with ample storage, coffee bar/drink station area, and transom windows throughout the home providing natural light. Outdoor living includes a 316 square foot wraparound porch. Updates include plumbing and electrical (2007), stairwell (2010), porch (2012), water heater (2018/2019), metal roof, and HVAC system. The basement includes exterior double-door access to a patio area and is plumbed for a future bathroom, offering potential for a second living space, in-law quarters, or possible short-term rental use. The lot may have potential to subdivide. Property reflects deferred maintenance consistent with age, and some areas are in the process of renovation. Property sold As-Is, Home will not qualify for traditional financing. This property offers strong potential for buyers seeking a project in a downtown location. If square footage is important, buyer/buyer’s agent to verify.
