Ashtabula Historic House is a beautiful and well-preserved antebellum home located in Central, South Carolina. The house was built in 1825 by Lewis Ladson Gibbes, a prominent planter and businessman in the area. The house boasts Greek Revival architecture and is surrounded by lush gardens and towering oak trees.

The interior of the house is just as impressive as the exterior, with period furnishings and artwork adorning the rooms. Visitors can take a guided tour of the house to learn about its history and the lifestyle of the wealthy plantation owners who once resided there.

Ashtabula is also significant for its association with the Civil War. In 1865, General William T. Sherman and his troops camped on the grounds of the house during their march through South Carolina. Today, visitors can see the remains of Confederate earthworks that were built to defend the area.

In addition to tours of the house, Ashtabula also hosts a variety of events throughout the year, including concerts, holiday celebrations, and educational programs.
