Description

Step into a piece of Summerville history where timeless Southern charm meets modern peace of mind. Originally serving as the gardener's cottage for the historic Tea Farm, this beautifully renovated property sits on nearly an acre of picturesque grounds just minutes from the heart of Historic Summerville. A neighboring property with similar acreage and comparable overall square footage recently sold for $1,445,000, providing helpful context for the value of this unique property. With its history, setting, and thoughtful renovations already in place, there is also plenty of opportunity for a new owner to add their own upgrades and personal touches over time.The main house offers 1,864 sq. Ft. with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, while a separate 650 sq. Ft. guest house provides anadditional bedroom and full bathroom, perfect for guests, extended family, a home office, or additional living space.Rich in character, the home retains its original charm while benefiting from extensive renovations and system upgrades throughout. Original hardwood floors flow through the main living areas, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The airy floor plan offers comfortable living with a spacious primary suite conveniently located on the main level, complete with an en suite bath. At the heart of the home, the beautifully appointed kitchen blends historic character with high-functionality, featuring luxury appliances including an impressive ILVE gas range and a built-in Samsung Dacor built-in panel refrigerator. Also downstairs are a convenient laundry room and half bath. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms and a beautiful full bathroom. Recent improvements provide both beauty and functionality, including a complete electrical overhaul throughout the home with new outlets, switches, service panel, and updated wiring. The entire upstairs was taken down to the studs and rebuilt with new drywall and plaster. The upstairs bathroom was fully renovated with new tile flooring, tiled shower and wall surrounds, a clawfoot tub with shower, new vanity, toilet, lighting, and fixtures. Plumbing updates include re-plumbing of the upstairs bathroom, primary bathroom, and kitchen, along with the installation of a new exterior clean out. Additional upgrades include new baseboards, shoe molding, and door casings throughout the home, fresh interior paint on all walls, ceilings, doors, and trim, new lighting fixtures throughout, a new 2-ton HVAC unit and duct work serving the second floor, a new crawlspace vapor barrier, and refreshed landscaping featuring newly installed grass and gravel in the front yard. Adding exceptional value is the detached, income producing carriage house. Freshly renovated, this one bedroom guest house features vaulted ceilings, a full kitchen, full bathroom, laundry area, and a strong rental history. Whether used as a long term rental (previously rented for $1400 a month) , guest accommodations, home office, or private retreat, it offers incredible flexibility and income potential.
