Description

Old South Charm at its best. This beauty was built in 1878 and dubbed Pope's Palace, named after its first owner Frank Pope, a business leader in the community, and believed to have been the first brick home built in Ninety Six. The house has much of its original historic details still intact: original mantles, central staircase, historic trim, heart pine flooring upstairs, and a rare extraordinary pressed tin ceiling in the four main rooms downstairs. The house would make for a magnificent restaurant, Airbnb or antique store/tea room. The four rooms and hallway in the first floor have a solid concrete floor covered in tile. The second floor has all original heart pine flooring. The most recent use was as a Antique store. The large kitchen has a hood system in place that, with a few upgrades, could be utilized as a full restaurant kitchen. The House is situated across from the historic depot and adjacent to the small commercial district. Ninety Six is home to of 2000 citizens in a county population of almost 70,000 centered around Greenwood SC. Within 20 minutes of the house are the economic draws of downtown Greenwood, Lake Greenwood with water Recreation and fishing, and Lander University. Local tourist attractions are Lake Greenwood, State Park, Ninety Six National Battlefield, and Saluda River
