Deems Haltiwanger House

This 1939 Tudor Revival house is one of three properties said to be located on the site where the plantation Diamond Hill, owned by Wade Hampton III (1818—1902), once stood. The house was originally owned by Deems Haltiwanger (1897—1997), and his first wife, Rosa Lee (1899—1980). Haltiwanger was the founder and president of Richland Shale Products Company. Wyatt Hibbs, a senior architect for the James B. Urquhart firm, designed the structure, which features decorative patterns in the cornice, porch walls and porch gable.
