Plantation Tour - Exchange

After Chicora Wood, we visited the Exchange Plantation, yet another property owned by the Allston family prior to the Civil War.  The front portion of the house is the oldest home along the Pee Dee River dating from around 1750-1770.  The two story rear addition was added by the current family in 1946.  The house had a charming rustic, yet refined, feel to it.  The formal front rooms were nicely decorated while the rear rooms were pine board paneling.  The two outbuildings adjacent the main house were quite nice and had their own unique character.
