Property Description

A COMMANDING PRESENCE 1001 Front Street, Historic Georgetown, South Carolina, an icon of architecture and one of Georgetowns grandest treasures for120 years, has both legacy and heritage. Built by the United States Government and designed by famed architect, Amii B. Young, as a United States Customs House and US Post Office. Young also designed the US Treasury and Customs Houses in Charleston, South Carolina, Richmond, Chicago and other sites as the Vermont State House. In this third oldest South Carolina Town, this property is only matched by historic Georgetown homes dating back to 1734. With striking accents as youll see in the photos, 1001 Front is located next door to the Kaminski House (1769) and the Parker-Stewart house, where as is written in President George Washingtons diary, he was entertained on his southern tour in 1740. Everything speaks of comfort and elegance. The Terraza floor of the Post Office lobby and marble base, with the polished walnut finish, is exceptionally attractive and reflects the great credit of the Government and its Officers. --- Editor, Georgetown Times, 1906. The structure is engaging, has distinction and shows imagination...and adds to the character of the main business district. --- Georgetown County Historic Register, 1971 With the nearby Steel Mill and Port preparing for development (Bids are now being accepted until October 15, to develop both), 1001 Front Street is perfectly positioned to become any number of things, such as a boutique hotel and/or restaurant, shops, etc. There are currently attorneys using several of the offices and their leases are either monthly or end in 2026. This is a beautiful place that must be appreciated in person. Feel free to request a beautiful 12-page brochure. Please verify all information.
