Young Place is a historic farmhouse in Due West, Abbeville County, South Carolina. It was the home of Reverend J.N. Young, a religious leader, teacher, and one of the founders of nearby Erskine College. [2] The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. [1]
Constructed around 1839, the farmhouse was remodeled after the Civil War into two stories, much along the lines of the Tuscan architecture. Exterior features include a cross gable roof and a square tower with a bracketed hipped roof.
