Historic Medway Plantation and the WWII Spy

◂ Back to Posts

Home to socialite and big-game hunter Gertrude Legendre—the first American woman captured in France during World War II—for more than 70 years, Medway Plantation in South Carolina is rich with exceptional provenance. Dating to 1686, the 6,700-acre former rice-plantation flourished under Legendre’s stewardship and became well-renowned as a hunting retreat, a nature preserve, and the scene of many grand Southern society events. A National Trust Historic Site, Medway is offered for sale at US$25 million by William Means Real Estate and is internationally marketed by Christie’s Great Estates.
