Own a piece of Greenville’s history from 1912! From the bungalow’s cedar shake & brick façade to the original doors with crystal door knobs, 310 Hampton Avenue’s original features have been carefully preserved and thoughtfully updated to work for today’s standards. This home has appeared in both the Greenville News and the At Home Journal.

Outstanding features begin with the +/-.32 acre lot with landscaping designed by Dabney Peebles around many of the home’s original plantings and hardwoods that give the perfect amount of visual interest, seasonal colors, and shade. The original wrap-around front porch with pergola and octagonal tile flooring provide the perfect spot to greet friends and neighbors, host large scale outdoor events, or just sit and enjoy the picturesque neighborhood views.

Just through the restored main front door you will discover many of the home’s original Southern pine and oak hardwood floors and 10 ft ceilings in all main rooms. Original to 1912 in the wide formal Living Room you will find a coffered ceiling, Corinthian columns, picture-frame moldings, Tiffany-style pendant lighting, fireplace/mantel, and its windows. A pocket door with its authentic hardware opens to the completely original Dining Room where you will be delighted to find rich board and batten wainscoting punctuated by a plate rail, a Tiffany-style chandelier that coordinates with the pendant lights in the Living Room, and picture frame molding that adds a polished finishing touch.

A plethora of glass front cabinetry updates the eat-in Kitchen along with workspace galore, and sleek stainless steel appliances that will aid in preparation of gourmet creations with tons of storage! Just off the Kitchen you will be thrilled to find a conveniently placed Powder Room and an oversized Laundry closet that is neatly tucked away. Additional living space can be found in the wonderful Florida porch that’s perfect for all seasons and spans nearly the length of the home with 18 windows giving picturesque views of the native & added azaleas, providing a second exterior entrance and a cedar lined walk-in closet that’s ideal for storing seasonal clothing.

The home’s main hallway gives way to all three bedrooms with each bedroom featuring original paneled doors (with crystal knobs) and operational top transoms, hardwood floors, ceiling fan and more picture frame moldings. The Master Suite has hardwood floors with a large walk-in closet and ensuite bath. The two other bedrooms share a Jack and Jill-style bath equipped with a sunken clawfoot tub encased with a vintage subway tile surround.

Be sure not to miss the spiral staircase that’s located just off the main hallway. It leads to an additional 445 sf of finished space that would be ideal for a play space, gym equipment, extra sleeping space, etc. Sought after features continue at the rear of the home where you will find a covered portico with ceiling fan, brick paver ramp and a brick patio that has been laid in an elegant herringbone pattern.

Beyond the patio you will also be delighted to find wonderful greenspace ready for outdoor fun and an alley way that leads to a detached covered carport with a connecting workshop. This home was listed in the National Register of Historic Places when the neighborhood was added in 1977, (creating the Hampton-Pinckney Historic District – one of oldest neighborhoods and first historic districts in Greenville). Within walking distance is: Main Street Peace Center, Bon Secours Wellness Arena, Liberty Bridge, Greenville Drive Baseball, Heritage Park, the Kroc Center, Swamp Rabbit Trail and the (future) Unity Park.

The neighbors are friendly – relax and enjoy walking your dog, greeting your neighbors, joining them for Flamingo Fridays and the Christmas Walkabout Progressive Dinner. 310 Hampton Avenue provides the ideal downtown lifestyle you have been looking for. Call today to schedule a private showing.
