Located within walking distance to Abbeville's quaint downtown square, this property offers a unique blend of architectural beauty, modern comfort, and small-town allure. From the moment you arrive, the grandeur of this home is unmistakable. A wide, welcoming front porch leads you to a solid wood door adorned with stained glass, opening to an impressive two-story foyer featuring original hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, double chandeliers, and a sweeping staircase.
