Step into a piece of Summerville history with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms in the 1,864 sq. Ft. main house, plus a separate 650-square-foot carriage house with an additional bedroom and full bathroom. Set on nearly an acre just minutes from Historic Summerville, the property combines historic character, extensive renovations, and flexible living space.Originally serving as the gardener's cottage for the historic Tea Farm, the main house retains its original charm while benefiting from thoughtful updates. Original hardwood floors run through the main living areas, while the spacious main level primary suite features an ensuite bath. The beautifully appointed kitchen blends historic character with modern functionality, including luxury appliances, an impressive ILVE gas range, and a built-in Samsung Dacor panel refrigerator. A laundry room and half bath complete the main level. Upstairs are two nicely sized bedrooms and a beautifully renovated full bathroom. The second floor was taken down to the studs and rebuilt with new drywall and plaster, while the bathroom received new tile flooring, tiled shower and wall surrounds, clawfoot tub with shower, vanity, toilet, lighting, and fixtures. Additional improvements include a complete electrical overhaul with new wiring, outlets, switches, and service panel; re-plumbing of the kitchen, primary bathroom, and upstairs bathroom; new baseboards, shoe molding, and door casings; fresh interior paint throughout; and new lighting fixtures. The home also features a new 2-ton HVAC system and ductwork serving the second floor, a new crawlspace vapor barrier, and refreshed front landscaping with new grass and gravel. The detached carriage house adds another 650 square feet of versatile living space and income potential. Freshly renovated, it features vaulted ceilings, a full kitchen, full bathroom, laundry area, and a strong rental history. Use it as a long-term rental, guest accommodations, home office, or private retreat, the sky is the limit! Outside, mature landscaping surrounds the property, with towering live oaks draped in Spanish moss, a large concrete patio, and two spacious storage sheds for tools, hobbies, and equipment. A neighboring property with similar acreage and comparable overall square footage recently sold for $1,445,000, providing useful context for the value of this property and its setting. With its history, extensive improvements, nearly an acre of land, and versatile carriage house, this property is ready to be enjoyed while still offering room for its next owner to make it their own. Living in Historic Summerville puts you close to Hutchinson Square, Short Central, locally owned restaurants, boutique shopping, art galleries, farmers markets, festivals, and community events. Nearby amenities include pickleball and tennis courts, parks and splash pads, walking trails, golf courses, pools, and abundant outdoor spaces, with many destinations accessible by foot, bicycle, or golf cart.
