Introducing an amazing opportunity to become the proud owner of a former Historic Inn, splendidly positioned in Chester, South Carolina. Here we have the well-crafted, well-loved McClure home, a grand mansion that dates back to 1848. This propertied estate is positively drenched in history, having once been the home of JJ McClure, the town's first mayor, who was a jeweler by trade and initially resided here.
The property's history is rich as it’s believed that the burning of Columbia, South Carolina, was observed from the regal oak tree rooted in this estate during the end of the Civil War. Owing to its vintage treasure-like charms, it has featured on the National Historic Registry and has been a star performer on the famous tour of homes circuit.
A staggering six fireplaces are scattered throughout the home, radiating warmth and inviting cozy seclusion during those chillier months. Creatively pairing vintage charm with modern amenities, the kitchen is newly remodeled, and the dining room proudly exhibits sky-high ceilings, perfect for intimate dinner parties or larger festive gatherings.
The mesmerizing glow of restored original wood floors accompanies you throughout the home, leading you to each of the four spacious bedrooms and four restful bathrooms. Upstairs, the primary wing offers an additional dressing room or study, setting a tranquil tone for rest and relaxation.
The story of this stately manor wouldn't be complete without mentioning the extensive almost-one-acre outdoor area. Here a lush, brick patio, a large wired shed, and a verdant lawn waiting to host garden parties, children's playdates, and quiet lounging under the plentiful pecan trees.
