About this home
There’s something special about a home with a story, and 519 Gaines Street is ready for its next chapter. Built in 1904, this thoughtfully renovated home welcomes you with historic charm, high ceilings, and the comfort of extensive updates. Set on 0.76 acres, it offers four bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and approximately 2,550 square feet, all just a short drive from Clemson and within walking distance of downtown Central and Jitters.
From the front porch with its new Trex railing, step inside and take in the high ceilings that give the home its spacious, inviting feel. Tongue and groove ceiling details bring warmth and character, while fresh paint and new light fixtures complement the home’s classic appeal. Nearly every part of the home has been redone, with care taken to preserve the charm that makes an older home so memorable.
Picture preparing breakfast in the updated kitchen with new appliances before heading to the screened porch with your coffee. With the porch freshly updated, it’s an inviting place to ease into the morning or unwind at the end of the day. The refreshed laundry space adds everyday convenience, while renovated bathrooms and an added half bath bring modern comfort throughout the home. Upstairs, new carpet adds a cozy touch to the spaces waiting for your own furnishings and personal style.
Behind the finishes are substantial improvements, including a new roof, new HVAC, new windows, a new tankless gas water heater, and added blown insulation in the attic. The crawl space has been encapsulated, and an improved space beneath the home includes added windows and room for storage or projects.
Outside, fresh landscaping, newly applied stucco on the foundation and chimney, repainted circle drive in front of the home, stone sidewalk to the front door, an added concrete pad for parking behind the home complete the updates. The 0.76-acre setting gives you room to enjoy the outdoors, while nearby downtown shops and a stop at Jitters can become part of your daily routine.
Close to Central Academy of the Arts and zoned for Daniel High School, this home offers a connection to Central with Clemson conveniently nearby. Come walk through, take in the character, and imagine making a little history of your own at 519 Gaines Street....
