Each of Winthrop's nine presidents has lived in the President's House.
Originally built by Captain W.H. Stewart, the home was offered as a
president's home as part of Rock Hill's winning bid to move Winthrop here
in 1893. Stewart then built as his second home the white columned house
which now serves as offices for the Center for Educator Recruitment,
Retention and Advancement.
First fashioned in the Queen Anne Victorian style, the house underwent a
major renovation in 1917 when balconies, turrets and other Victorian
features were removed. The house itself was moved back from the street
about 50 feet, and brick veneer was added.
