Roseville Plantation is a historic home located near Florence, Florence County, South Carolina. It was built in 1771 and renovated about 1835 and 1910. It is a two-story, lateral gabled, weatherboard-clad residence. The building consists partly of mortise and tenoned hand-hewn and peeled log construction. The house at Roseville Plantation is at the end of a tree lined dirt driveway and set at the center of a broad sparsely landscaped lawn, resting upon a brick pier foundation which has recently been enclosed at its perimeter with stuccoed concrete block. It features a broad, one-story, hip roofed wraparound veranda. [2] [3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. [1] The plantation is the final resting place of Ada White Bacot. [4]
