Located in the heart of the Hickory Valley Historic District, Orange Grove was built at the beginning of the 1820’s by US Senator Franklin Harper Elmore with a gabled roof and one story veranda supported by Tuscan colonnettes wrapping around two sides of the house. This historic home for sale is a perfect example of federal period architecture.

Bright, airy and full of promise, Orange Grove Place is a two-story home (6,072 square feet) of centrally heated and cooled space built on a masonry and brick crawl space. There are four bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms in the main house. Orange Grove has beautifully balanced proportions, light filled rooms and soaring 12 foot ceilings. The main entry is graced by a typical example of federal period architecture, an elliptical fanlight of leaded glass framed by full length period sidelights. The foyer looks on a lovely set of French doors that not only lend light to the expansive living room on the other side, but also afford visitors a glance though the gorgeous three bay posterior façade to the carefully managed grounds.

There are gracious receiving rooms to the right and left of the entryway. To see and read about the elegant Federal period parlor, click this link: Historic Homes SC | Orange Grove Place – Parlor
