Elegance, Charm, and the Future of the Foothills. Discover a rare opportunity to own one of Landrum’s founding family homes. Situated where the quiet of the historic district meets the excitement of the new Saluda Grade Rail-Trail, this 6-bedroom estate has been thoughtfully restored with over $200,000 in recent upgrades (HVAC, plumbing, and aesthetic refinements). The Layout: Whether you desire a "forever home" or a high-performing STR, the floor plan adapts to you. Lock off the upstairs for a cozy 2BR footprint or open the entire home to host a crowd. From the floor-to-ceiling library to the sun-drenched parlor and chef’s kitchen, every corner feels "magical." The Lifestyle: Start your morning with church bells in the distance and end it on your screened porch watching the sunset. You are literally steps from the gateway to the Saluda Grade Trail, set to become a regional destination rivaling the Swamp Rabbit Trail. The Opportunity: The current owners are wrapping up construction on their retirement home and are prepared for a seamless transition. To assist with a truly "turnkey" move, all furniture and effects are negotiable to convey. Skip the stress of decorating—this tastefully equipped home is ready for you on Day 1. With just a few homes as old as this, this turn of the (20th) century home is a rare find in Landrum. Homes built by Landrum’s founding families just don’t hit the market all that often. This home boasts four outdoor entertaining spaces (with a large covered porch and amazing screened porch), 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, two fireplaces, a chef’s kitchen, dine-in ante-kitchen, a library with floor-to-ceiling shelves, a master bedroom with separate sitting area, a formal “parlor,” tons of storage (rare in a house this old), a mud room, a large laundry room and charming appointments throughout that draw visitors into a magical experience around every corner. The Saluda Grade Advantage: Just a few hundred feet from the house is the site of the Saluda Grade Trail (you can see it from the balcony of the master suite). The former “rails” are slated to start coming up to make room for a recreational trail in the coming months. This trail “at your doorstep” should rival the Swamp Rabbit in Greenville or the Ecusta trail in Brevard. Landrum is certain to see boom in activity and amenities with outdoor enthusiasts flocking to a trail that will take them deep into the North Carolina mountains (ending in Zirconia, NC). Literally steps from your front door is the gateway to adventure (and a thriving, dynamic outdoor culture) that awaits the new owners of this lovely home! The region affords artistic charm, mountain views, and equestrian heritage—welcoming visitors with galleries, cafes, local wine, and a vibrant, walkable downtown full of character. Discover hands-on experiences with local makers—where creativity thrives through workshops, artisan markets, and craft studios celebrating the region’s rich heritage and vibrant artistic community. Asheville, NC is to the north —a mountain city alive with creativity, craft breweries, eclectic dining, and Blue Ridge beauty— unforgettable experiences for adventurers, foodies, and culture seekers alike. Explore the vibrant charm of Greenville, SC to the south—where award-winning dining, lively arts, scenic parks, and Southern hospitality create the perfect blend of urban energy and natural beauty.
