Property Description

Living in Downtown Greenville, SC offers something special—but residing in one of its most iconic and beautifully restored landmarks is truly extraordinary. Thirteen years ago, the owners discovered the historic church at 307 Townes Street—originally built in 1929 to serve as the city's Jewish Synagogue—and knew it was destined to become their home. With their design expertise and their extensive experience restoring and repurposing properties, they embarked on a transformation that is nothing short of breathtaking. The restoration pairs impeccable craftsmanship with timeless materials, honoring the church's original architecture while creating a residence of rare sophistication. The structure itself is remarkable—built of solid brick five courses deep, with new interior blackened steel stairwells across three levels, solid concrete slabs, and expansive Thermopane casement windows, some soaring to 12' x 6'. Every finish speaks to quality: glazed walls, masonry, metal shingles and dome, hardwoods, custom tile, plaster, wood shiplap, and spray foam insulation. Modern conveniences complement historic character: five central HVAC systems, new electrical and plumbing throughout, four full baths plus a powder room, soaking tub, and even a dedicated dog wash. The first floor offers independent living with two bedrooms with ensuite baths, game room, workout space, and living space with walkout to pool area. The second floor, accessed by the front steps, is a showcase of grand living—welcoming guests with a 36' x 5' foyer, flowing into living, dining, a den, an office and an extraordinary kitchen centered around a 24' island. The third floor crowns the home with a 900 sq. ft. primary suite, its contemporary design framed by the restored steel dome and 21' ceilings, overlooking lush gardens. Outdoors, the .61-acre grounds are an urban sanctuary with mature plantings, evergreens, native shrubs, and a stream meandering through the property. A heated gunite concrete pool invites year-round enjoyment, while multiple decks, a stone patio, a steel arbor with banquet seating, and spaces designed for outdoor cooking create seamless indoor-outdoor living. 307 Townes Street is more than a residence—it is an architectural masterpiece that balances historic reverence with modern luxury. To truly appreciate its beauty, craftsmanship, and atmosphere, it must be experienced in person. Two tax numbers are included in sale: 0012000104900 and 0012000105000. (Partial AI writing)
