Nostalgic convenience awaits in this Greenville community
The signs on one of Greenville’s busiest throughways may say Augusta Street, but locals have known the area by its original name, Augusta Road, for more than a century. No matter what suffix it goes by, the Augusta Street Area has been one of the most popular shopping and dining areas in the city since the 1850s, with a thriving home market nearby to match. “It’s one of the most popular areas in Greenville because of the accessibility it provides. People are willing to pay more for a smaller house or lot to live off Augusta Street,” says Maggie Toler, Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway Home Services. Toler has sold more than $172 million in upstate South Carolina real estate over the last decade. In addition to the vibrant businesses nearby, locals have access to the Greenville Country Club and the city’s acclaimed public school system.
