Hutchinson House

This is a work in progress and is not open to the public at this time. The home is being reconstructed, but if you are really interested in it, you might be fortunate enough to speak with a gentleman in a white truck who is working on the property. He will tell you about the project and some of the story behind this house. We cannot wait to see the completed project in a few years.

It's just a neat piece of history tucked away on route to Edisto Beach. I'm excited to see the house when the renovations are fully complete.

I keep checking on the progress of restoring the house and lands. I am going to be so happy when it is open. They do have envelopes for donations if anyone is interested in donating.

The restoration project if the house appears almost complete. If you are a history lover, you will be impressed. If you ate a Black History buff, you will be inspired. Neairiful natural surroundings!

Have visited this site before when the outdoor gardens were open. They are closed for the duration of Summer 2024. I did receive a delayed but helpful response from the Edisto Open Land Trust director that explained: the county prevents visitors past the parking lot until construction is complete. Frustrating both for visitors and for a great organization that’s trying to fund and complete the project. I will definitely return this Winter when it is complete. Beautiful gardens for pollinators and birds, and I await the indoor museum.

Great place for a quick detour. Lots of history. They have Sea Island long fiber cotton growing near the house. Just a small plot for demonstration. They found local seed of the original cotton grown on site.

House is restored and work continues on restoring the grounds. Nice pecan and live oak trees.

I can tell that a lot of hard work went into restoring this historical place. The information on the placard is interesting and informative. Looking forward to visiting the home and property when it is open to the public.
