Overview

Once upon a time, a wealthy gentleman of Summerville, promised his wife he would build her ''the prettiest home in Summerville''. True to his word, he commissioned the renowned architect, Archie Myers, to design a home fashioned after Thomas Jefferson's home but with the dome to the side. The result is this timeless ''Montecello of the South'', built with solid bricks to withstand the toughest storms. The large oaks, dripping with moss, and mature magnolia trees, shade the large antebellum porch, reminding us of days gone by. If you like to entertain or just enjoy large spaces, this home is for you. The foyer is impressive and introduces the lovely formal living room with fireplace and large windows. This room flows into the grand dining room with kitchen beyond and cozy family room to the side. The kitchen is bright and efficient with a large walk in pantry and spacious eat in area. The family room with fireplace, is cozy and makes a great media room. There are tall doors, archways, dental moldings, wainscoting, gleaming hard wood floors, and beautiful chandeliers throughout the home. It may be possible to purchase some of the antiques and other furnishings. The master suite is large with soaring ceilings. There is an adjoining cedar closet and additional dressing room off the master bath which would also serve as a convenient nursery. Two more bedrooms are on the first floor with a jack and jill bath. There is an octagonal solarium that would make a great escape for a cup of tea and a little rest. While there, one can admire the lucious landscaping loaded with aged camilia and azalea bushes or enjoy the spring fed lake. The upstairs remodel is a fabulous space with game room, bedrooms, bathrooms and unbelievable storage! Summerville is rich in History so stroll around your estate and discover the edge of the old Lover's Lane from the former Pine Forest Inn built in 1891, where people traveled to Summerville for rest and relaxation. Fish from your own lake or go bird watching in your back yard. Most of the furniture is negotiable. This is the dream home you have been waiting for so don't miss it! Owner may consider 650,000 down with balloon payment.
