Public Remarks: Take advantage of this rare opportunity to own one of Hodges’ most recognizable and storied properties—“The Shanty”, proudly displayed on its roadside sign for years for every passerby to see. This beloved family farmhouse rests on 54.94 acres of a perfect mix of cleared pasture and wooded land offering peace, privacy, and tranquility. Passed down through generations, this timeless home blends historic Southern charm with modern comfort. The farmhouse spans approximately 3005 ft.², featuring 4 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. The master bedroom, full bath, and a second bedroom are located on the main level along with 4 fireplaces, cozy living room, kitchen, dining room, and much more. All of this offers a warm gathering space full of charm and character. Upstairs includes two additional bedrooms, a half-bath, two fireplaces and a comfortable retreat that was used as an office/man cave. The home has been updated with energy-efficient windows and has Wi-Fi access available through WCtel. Outside, mature trees of every caliber and muscadine vines welcome you to enjoy the nature found in true country living. The property includes a 3-car detached carport, an old smokehouse (well house) with water and electricity, a second storage shed perfect for storing yard equipment or firewood, and a third outbuilding/workshop once used by the family patriarch. Original barn sits on the property as well and is perfect for housing horses and other animals. Steep in history, this property was once connected to George Newton Nickles, a well-known figure in the area who raised his famous pack mules on the premises and shoeing them near the muscadine vine. However, later they were confiscated by the Confederacy during the Civil War, adding a fascinating note to this property’s past. Military personnel were housed here during war times and this home has a lot of history and stories to tell. Take note of all the family’s military heroes on display on the military wall upstairs proudly displaying their contribution and their time served defending our country. With nearly 55 acres of rolling beauty, this estate offers endless potential, whether as a working farm, family retreat, or private homestead. Located just minutes from Greenwood and Abbeville, this property delivers the best of both worlds: historic charm, modern comfort, and the serenity of true country living. Come get your piece of South Carolina history — “The Shanty” is ready for its next chapter and offers you a prime country lifestyle at such an affordable price. Set up your showing today and experience all that this crown jewel and 55 acres has to offer.
