601 W South Broad Street, Walhalla, SC 29691 - Oconee County

One of Walhalla's finest historic homes, the Carter House, originally built in 1907, is now completely restored as a stunning blend of historic charm and modern convenience. Located adjacent to the Walhalla Greenway on a spacious 1.47-acre parcel, this four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home boasts 3,900 square feet, a large front porch, and so much more. The main level features a large living room, library/parlor office, formal dining room, and chef’s kitchen, each with a historic fireplace, hardwood floors, and 9-foot ceilings. The kitchen is a delight, with a large center island, granite countertops, pantry, and stainless steel appliances, including a gas range. Off the kitchen, the main level master is oversized with a large walk-in closet, full bath with garden tub, walk-in shower, and dual vanities. The main level also features a dedicated laundry room, located close to the master suite, and a half bath for guests.

Upstairs, by far the most unique feature is a wet bar that leads out to a rooftop deck with an outdoor shower and a spectacular view of the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains, ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. Here, you'll find three bedrooms, one of which has its own ensuite full bath, making it ideal for a second-floor master if desired. An additional bath, located in the hallway, is well appointed with a shower-tub combination. The upstairs also features a floored section of attic that could be turned into an additional office area or is ideal for storage. The layout of the house is perfect for anyone looking to live on the main level and turn the upstairs into a short-term rental.

Outside, you'll find a large detached two-car garage with concrete floors and extra tall doors, ideal for anyone who works on vehicles or needs to store a boat or other toys. Additionally, the historic garden shed has been converted to an outdoor cabana/she shed area, with beautifully restored windows, a bar area, and a porch overlooking the firepit. The firepit area features a swing and even a parking area for an RV. The land is zoned R-10 and could easily be divided if desired for a mother-in-law suite or an additional home.

Completely remodeled in 2016 and updated further in 2018, this home is ideal for those who want historic charm without the high costs usually associated with older homes. Utility bills average in the low $200s and can be provided upon request. Located just off the greenway and on a quiet road just one block from Main Street Walhalla, this home offers the best that Upstate South Carolina has to offer. It is truly a must-see.
