Standing prominently along North Main Street in historic downtown Abbeville, 510 N Main Street is the renowned Simpson-Power-Mattison House, an extraordinary early-20th-century residence recognized as Historical Stop 40.
The two-story home is considered one of the finest examples of Shingle Style architecture in the Southeast, distinguished by its asymmetrical composition, sweeping hip roof with cross gables, green shingle siding, raised-seam metal roof, rusticated stonework, and dramatic two-story polygonal bay.
510 N Main St, Abbeville, South Carolina — $339,000
4 beds • 4 baths • 4,239 sq. ft. • Circa 1907–1908 • 1 acre • Shingle Style
Its welcoming wraparound porch rests on substantial stone piers beneath elegant Ionic columns, while an arched stone porte-cochere recalls the era when horse-drawn carriages and early automobiles arrived at the front door.
Inside, approximately 4,239 square feet unfolds through a grand two-story foyer, high ceilings, hardwood floors, and generous living spaces, with three fireplaces adding further architectural presence.
The primary suite is particularly generous, offering a dressing room, sitting room, walk-in closet, and full bath with a soaking tub, while the four-bedroom layout provides flexibility for both family living and elegant entertaining.
Set on approximately one acre, the property also includes covered front and rear porches, a patio, outbuildings, and a level setting within Abbeville’s historic downtown environment.
The residence was previously offered at $469,900 before returning to the market at $389,000 in July 2026, and it has now been reduced another $50,000 to $339,000.
For a buyer who values architectural authenticity and preservation, the Simpson-Power-Mattison House offers a remarkable chance to own an important piece of Abbeville’s architectural story—a sophisticated Shingle Style residence whose stonework, sweeping rooflines, porch, bay window, and historic character make it far more than simply another old house.
