322 Hampton Avenue

322 Hampton is a home with a ‘soul,’ built with a special care and materials largely not found in new builds, and an historic charm that is unmatched. Originally built and owned by the McBee family, this brick bungalow is awash with history. Approaching this handsome yet unassuming home from the crepe myrtle-lined street in the oldest historic neighborhood in Greenville, you enter to find yourself surprised to discover 12 ½’ ceilings throughout (unheard of!

) and very large rooms for the era. An open flow of the home from the front porch through the living/dining/kitchen/back deck makes this home wonderfully suitable for entertaining in small numbers or large! The charm, comfort, understated elegance, and surprising roominess of 322 Hampton simply requires stepping into the home, where it all becomes clear.

Seeing is believing. The home is largely original (a testament to its history and the integrity of its build), with the exception of room renovations and appliance/hvac/roof upgrades or replacements. The master bath was installed in approximately 2011; the kitchen, walk in closet and bedroom closets in 2016; the 2d bathroom 2017; screen porch 2018; gas logs/fireplace in master 2021; french doors (vintage) connecting master bedroom to front porch in 2022.

Brand new Trane HVAC (less than 1 month old), water heater only a few years old, and the roof installed approx. 2010.
