You can move in and celebrate the 250th anniversary of the founding of the USA in a home started before the Revolutionary War. Located on a corner lot, the home sits on its original tabby foundation and faces east, unusual for homes in the Point.

It has 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, living room, dining room, office, bonus room with 72'' TV, built-in Polk sound system, kitchen, rear porch with extensive rear brick patio, and separate ADU. The metal roof was custom installed in2016. The home is in the Historic Old Point, a section of easy walkable, beautiful streets and historic homes. It is three blocks from Bay Street, and downtown restaurants, shops , Waterfront Park, and the marina. The home has an attic with storage original to the home. There is a workroom under the home as well as a gym with heating and cooling. The home is Georgian architecture and many parts of the interior and exterior of the home retain materials from the original construction of the home. The home was originally constructed by Rev. William Johnson, the first Baptist Minister to come to the low country and is purported to be the minister who introduced baptisms to the Beaufort area. Some time after the home was constructed, the room that currently serves as the entertainment room and the kitchen were added. In 1999, the rear covered patio, patio, garage and ADU were added.
The original construction date has been verified by historic preservationists who surveyed the Old Point during a historic survey for the City of Beaufort. During the Civil War the home was owned by W. C. Danner. Confiscated by the US Government after the war as were many homes in Beaufort, it was subsequently owned by Samuel Bamfield, the husband of Elizabeth Smalls Bamfield, the daughter of Robert Smalls, well known for his heroic actions during the Civil War. Mr. Bamfield was Clerk of Court for Beaufort County for 20 years and after that, postmaster of Beaufort. After his death, his wife became postmistress of Beaufort and served until her retirement. All 11 of their children were born in the home.
