Description

Step back in time with the Francis B. Higgins House, the oldest documented dwelling in Newberry, South Carolina, built circa 1820. Rich in character and legacy, this remarkable property reflects the early introduction of Federal and Greek Revival architectural styles to the region and carries the historical significance of Francis B. Higgins, a respected attorney, planter, and county commissioner in equity. Listed on the Historic Registry of Homes in Newberry County, this home stands as a true testament to the area’s heritage. Situated on 1.7 acres, spacious living, featuring four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, two living rooms, a library, and a charming back porch perfect for quiet evenings. A detached garage apartment behind the home provides additional living space or rental potential and is ready for renovation. Modern updates such as air conditioning have been thoughtfully added, while much of the home’s original character remains intact. The interior is primed for restoration, offering the perfect opportunity for a new owner to bring their vision to life while preserving a piece of Newberry’s storied past. Don’t miss your chance to own this historic landmark and create your own chapter in its over 200-year legacy.
