🏛️ A $100,000 PURCHASE COULD TURN INTO A $1.9 MILLION SAVINGS FOR OCONEE COUNTY.

The old Oconee County Courthouse at 211 W. Main Street in Walhalla is officially available for redevelopment.

Built in 1956 and sitting at more than 33,000 square feet, this unique Mid-Century Modern courthouse has been vacant for years and requires significant renovation and remediation.

But here’s what makes this opportunity different:

💰 Purchase price: $100,000
🏗️ $1.1 MILLION County redevelopment incentive available upon completion of the required renovation/remediation within 24 months and in accordance with County requirements.
🏚️ Estimated demolition cost: approximately $3 MILLION

Instead of spending millions to demolish the building and walk away with an empty site, a qualified redevelopment buyer has the opportunity to preserve the structure, bring a substantial historic building back into productive use, and potentially create a tenable space for new retailers, businesses, or other community uses.

If the approximately $3 million demolition cost is avoided and the County’s $1.1 million redevelopment incentive is utilized as intended, this project represents a potential $1.9 million savings to taxpayers, while retaining the possibility of a revitalized downtown property.

This isn’t a typical real estate listing. It’s a redevelopment challenge — and an opportunity to decide what the next chapter of this historic Walhalla landmark looks like.
