George P. Hoffman House
George P. Hoffman House, Historic residence in Blythewood, US
The George P. Hoffman House is a one-story frame building with a central five-bay section, flanked by three-bay wings and a peaked porch entrance. The symmetrical layout and classical proportions reflect Greek Revival design principles.
The house was constructed in 1855 and passed through the Civil War era with its community. In February 1865, General Sherman's troops moved through the region, marking a pivotal moment in the nation's history.
The structure displays the symmetrical design and classical porch elements characteristic of mid-19th century Greek Revival architecture. These stylistic features continue to define the character of the town center today.
The building now serves as Blythewood Town Hall and operates as an active government office. Visitors should note that access may be limited to regular office hours and public areas only.
The original owner George P. Hoffman was Blythewood's first postmaster and simultaneously ran a sawmill and later the Charlotte and South Carolina Railroad. This blend of business ventures reflects the entrepreneurial drive of the early community.
