Sold SC house while resident of VA. Paid tax with settlement on the sale to SC.

My husband and I sold a secondary home in SC. We made a profit and upon settlement on the sale were charged a non-resident 7% withholding for SC. I assume that we have to file a SC state tax form for this gain? It looks like we also pay not only Federal tax on it, which we knew, but also the VA return. Where would we show the SC tax withholding. I feel like we are getting taxed for the profit on the house on both the VA and SC form. Although, when I completed the SC form, I did not see a place to put the tax we paid on the sale of the house. Can we take off the gain on the VA tax form?
