204 S Main Street, Abbeville, SC 29620

Built in the 1820s, this preserved historic property—known as the Shillito-Townsend House—offers office-ready rooms within a character-rich layout. The main level features four rooms suitable for offices, client or patient meetings, or boutique-style showrooms, along with a full bathroom, laundry closet, and a back office with private access to the gardens. Multiple rooms include remote gas fireplaces, and the interior retains original wide-plank hardwood floors, moldings, fireplaces, and 9-over-9 windows. The kitchen is updated while keeping the historic window garden view, and includes a gas range, farmhouse sink, dishwasher, solid wood cabinetry, and butcher block countertops, supported by an adjacent mudroom.

Located at 204 S Main Street in Abbeville, the home fronts a brick walkway and white picket fence and sits near downtown activity, including Main Street Coffee and the Abbeville Opera House, plus events on CourtSquare.

For buyers seeking a work-from-home or small business setting, the configuration supports multiple private spaces, including two upstairs rooms reached by an original central staircase. One upstairs room includes a working fireplace and garden views, while the other retains original wallpaper. Recent improvements include a 4-ton HVAC system installed in 2023, fresh interior and exterior paint, a sealed and repaired roof, and new attic insulation. A preservation easement held by the Palmetto Trust for Historic Preservation helps protect the property’s long-term legacy, and pre-approval or proof of funds is required prior to viewing.
