The Elmore-Henderson House | c. 1821 Some homes were built to impress. This one was built to endure. Established in the early 1820s by U.S. Congressman Franklin Harper Elmore, this historic Federal-style residence remains one of Walterboro's most significant and recognizable estates. Set behind gates on over seven private acres within the Hickory Valley Historic District, the property offers a rare combination of architectural presence, land, and legacy--just over an hour from Charleston. From the moment you enter the property, there is a sense of arrival that cannot be replicated. A long approach framed by mature trees and established plantings gradually reveals the residence, positioned with intention and surrounded by grounds thoughtfully designed to complement both the architecture and the natural landscape.
