Horse Farms For Sale in South Carolina

Admittedly, the Palmetto state’s “street cred” in the equestrian community seems underwhelming on the surface. Yet just like a brushing a stallion brings out a beautiful shine, a closer inspection of the Palmetto state’s “horse power” shows it’s got a rather significant pedigree. Top jockeys, trainers and owners have originated from here. The Aiken area is known for its thoroughbred pastures. And South Carolina is one 10 states with an official horse, the Carolina Marsh Tacky.

The Lowcountry, too, has a long history with riding, breeding and racing. And while hardly center ring today, it remains on the periphery of the horse world.

In many cases, the horse farms aren’t that far from cities and suburbs.

South Carolina is located in southeast United States. Three geographic regions cover the state. The Atlantic Coastal Plain (or the South Carolina Low Country) extends west from the Atlantic Ocean. The Atlantic Coastal Plains are swampy, flat and marked by rivers near the coast. The Coastal Plains are forested and lined with sandy hills as you move inland. The higher elevations and rolling hills of the Piedmont are located northwest of the Atlantic Coastal Plain. The more low lying Blue Ridge Mountains cross northwest South Carolina with elevations reaching 3,000 ft.

 

South Carolina's economy is historically based on agriculture. Tobacco, poultry, cattle, dairy, soybeans and hogs are important agricultural products. Growth of the textile industry met an ill fate in the 1920s with the appearance of the boll weevil--sending many African Americans north in search of work. Textile and clothing industries are based in Piedmont and continue to be an important industry to the state, along with chemical products, paper products, machinery and tourism.

Historic Hitchcock Stables

Aiken, Aiken County, South Carolina


Come and see where Aiken's Winter Colony, the sporting capital of the Southeast, began. Do you want 8.5 totally private acres on the edge of Aiken's iconic 2100-acre Hitchcock Woods? While the original Hitchcock property has been divided up over the years, this parcel hosts the original Stables built by Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Hitchcock to accommodate their many horses -including polo ponies, fox -hunters, jumpers, etc. The present stables were eventually acquired by the present seller's father, international sportsman Mr. Pete Bostwick. He connected the two barns so that the horses could track around the entire covered perimeter of the barn during bad weather. Today there are 2 carriage sheds, an 8.67 sequestered acres 1300 square foot bunkhouse/office, and 8 paddocks nestled into the 8 plus acres. Would you enjoy riding or driving your horses and ponies directly into the private foundation of Hitchcock Woods -wooded paradise, cut thru with broad, sandy trails, and inviting jumps? Perhaps you like to run for exercise and peace of mind, or walk your dogs with friends, pausing to let them drink from the cool waters of the named creeks and ponds along the route: Barton's Pond, Sand River, Black Gum Pond. all possible when you buy this extraordinary legacy property and make it yours. There is plenty of space to build a spacious private residence.
