Built in 1858 by Dr. Philip Wilhite, the downtown landmark at the corner of S. McDuffie and River Streets was occupied by the Wilhite family for about 80 years. After 163 years and five owners, the 6,000-square-foot, 14-room antebellum residence has been restored by its present owner to its original beauty. Located in the heart of Downtown Anderson, SC, The Wilhite House offers the perfect venue for your wedding, celebration, or business conference. The Wilhite House boasts tall sweeping stair cases, vaulted ceilings, impressive period furniture, ornate fixtures, and original woodwork to immerse guests in an elegant & breathtaking experience.
