730 Whaley St, Columbia, SC 29201

This house, built in 1920, is on the National Historic Register. The six column flanked portico is a fitting preface to the grand entry which spans from front to rear with the focal point of a majestic staircase which includes a landing and curved balustrade. Completely finished in heart pine floors, the rooms are gracious in scale and flowing through large, double doorways with light from the tall, wide windows. The home features five fireplaces, built-in bookcases, 9 1/2 foot ceilings, original kitchen cabinets with heavy molding and a pass through service to the breakfast room, pinwheel tile bathroom floors, a large, high attic, a service basement, and a detached garage. The gardens are appropriate for this stately southern home and include many varieties of 60 year old azaleas and camellias. An irrigation system and in-ground well keep the gardens lush. This is a wonderful family home.
