Rankin-Harwell House
Rankin-Harwell House, Greek Revival plantation house in Florence County, US.
The Rankin-Harwell House features twenty-two substantial Doric columns made of stuccoed brick that extend around three sides of the two-story frame structure.
Built in 1857, this plantation residence received its place on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974, marking its importance in South Carolina's architectural legacy.
The structure, also known as The Columns and Carolina Hall, represents the architectural preferences of wealthy Southern plantation owners during the mid-nineteenth century.
Located six miles northeast of Florence off South Carolina Highway 305, the property encompasses two acres of land with a raised basement foundation.
The house combines classical Greek Revival elements with regional building traditions, incorporating a low-pitched hipped roof and freestanding colonnade design.
