Historic Cross Keys Property Once in a lifetime Opportunity for Home, Agri-Tourism, or Heritage InvestmentLocated in south western Union County, this unique property offers the chance to own land tied to one of South Carolinas most important early crossroads. Set near the intersection of Old Charleston Road (Old Buncombe Road) and Old Ninety-Six Road (the Old Piedmont Stage Road), this site sits within the historic landscape of the once large and prosperous Cross Keys Plantation, a major 1800s stagecoach and travel stop. The Cross Keys House (18121814) and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.Perfect for those seeking a peaceful country home, the property features open acreage and timeless rural character. Yet it is also ideally suited for agri-tourism or event use, thanks to the rare advantage of having both mens and womens bathrooms already on site. This makes it an excellent foundation for weddings, farm-to-table dinners, seasonal festivals, markets, heritage programming, or other income-producing ventures.The location is exceptional: only 10 minutes from I-26, 35 minutes to Spartanburg, and 45 minutes to Greenville-Spartanburg Airport (GSP)making visitor access easy while preserving the tranquility of its historic setting.For preservation-minded buyers, this property retains strong historic integrity, with magnificent federal architectural features and approaches that echo what travelers saw more than 200 years ago. Most notable ise the rare diamond patterned flemish bond patern in the four exterior chimneys. Here is a rare chance to become a steward of one of the Upstates most culturally significant homes that could become a homeplace and/or a business rooted in authenticity, heritage, and the growing agri-tourism market.Whether for personal living, entrepreneurial opportunity, or preservation investment, this Cross Keys property offers unmatched potential in a truly historic setting. Note that the furniture is the property of the Union County Historic Society and will be removed prior to closing.
