Living downtown is special, but calling one of Greenville’s most iconic landmarks home isn’t an opportunity that comes by every day. At 307 Townes Street, a 1929 synagogue has been masterfully restored into a residence that blends historic reverence with modern luxury. The result is a one-of-a-kind, 5,608-sqft home filled with craftsmanship, character, and comfort.

Features of the three-bedroom, five-bathroom house include:

  • The original brick structure, five courses deep, with soaring casement windows
  • Contemporary steel stairwells spanning three levels and a restored steel dome
  • A 900-sqft primary suite under 21-ft ceilings
  • A gourmet kitchen with a 24-foot island
  • Five HVAC systems, new electrical/plumbing, and a dedicated dog wash
  • Lush 0.61-acre grounds with gardens, a stream, a heated gunite concrete pool, a stone patio, and a banquet arbor
