About this property

Restored servants' quarters for 1812 house in heart of Historic District

  • The meticulously restored Cottage is a former servants' quarters for this property which has one of the oldest homes in Summerville dating from ca. 1812. The main house and the Cottage have been the focus of over 40 years attention to proper restoration by many fine craftsmen from the historic preservation community of Charleston and the Low Country. The Cottage measures approximately 800 sq' and is approached by its own private paved drive with private parking. Outside the Cottage is a large brick patio surrounded by boxwood, azaleas and camellias and a pleasing water feature. Many magnolia trees and live oaks surround the Cottage which is about 150' behind the main house. The Cottage is completely self-contained with a full kitchen, bath/shower, living room with fireplace as well as a large bedroom with Queen 4 poster bed and sitting area. The living room and bedroom both have high cathedral ceilings. The roof of the Cottage is standing seam tin and makes for magnificent sleep during a rain storm. Guests have been telling us for many years that nothing has been overlooked in the decor or amenities for the Cottage. The kitchen is fully equipped with new stainless appliances and a granite counter top. There is a range, refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, disposal, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, Keurig coffee maker, pots, pans, dishes and utensils. The bath has a tiled tub/shower and pedestal sink. Wide board heart pine floors are throughout. Linens are provided and a washing machine/dryer is available for guest use at the Cottage.

Magical location set back and surrounded by mature live oaks, palm trees and beautiful gardens to stroll through. Loved learning about the history of the area. Many of the houses have numbered signs with QR codes that provide information on the history of the houses which made for a very interesting stroll through the neighborhood. Cottage very clean and well stocked. Host was very pleasant and welcoming. Easy walk to beautiful park with shaded walking trails and to downtown Summerville.

Staycation

We stayed the week while awaiting the completion of renovations on our home. Everything was great about our stay. Great restoration on an old piece of history we thoroughly enjoyed the peace and tranquility provided us by our host Mr. Price. Ask him for the history lesson if you visit.

We recently stayed at the cottage for a weekend while visiting our son and his family. Initially, when I realized we would need to stay in a rental during our visit, I was disappointed. However, this property was an incredible surprise and delight. It is located in the historic district of Summerville with beautiful live oaks, Spanish moss and lovely historic homes lining the street. This property doesn’t feel like your typical VRBO rental, but more like a lovely inn. The property was very clean, had all the amenities, and was comfortable (including the bed). I love old homes and enjoyed all the ways they decorated this cottage. We enjoyed coffee on the patio in the mornings, with beautiful trees all around, walked the short distance to downtown to shop at the farmer’s market, got coffee at the Odd Duck coffee shop, and shopped at Main Street Reads. Communication with the owner was excellent and immediate. I highly recommend and will rent again the next time we are unable to stay at my son’s.

Peaceful

I just love this little cottage! Decorated beautifully, located close to town and parks. The neighborhood is just absolutely gorgeous! The cottage I could live in for the rest of my life. The owners were wonderful! The cottage had everything I needed and more. It took a morning and evening walk through the park and into town.

Cozy Cottage

This cottage was truly a home away from home since I am out of my home due to storm damage. It had everything I needed for a 6-week stay. The atmosphere was exceptional surrounded by beautiful trees and gardens. Located in the historic district, the neighborhood setting is charming and the cottage itself is updated and cozy with wonderful walking trails to invigorate my small dog. A truly comfortable retreat.

My husband and I stayed at this lovely little cottage for much of the month of June while we helped our son complete renovations on his first home purchase. David was wonderful to work with and it was a lovely quiet place to come back to in the evening. It is very wooded so the bedroom was nice and dark at night, which I really appreciated. The bathroom has been updated with a beautiful tub/shower combination. You can easily walk downtown, which I loved! We would certainly recommend it.

This was a delightful find in the Summerville historic district. The entire property was well appointed and had everything I would need, or sometimes things I didn’t even know I needed. Highly recommend and can’t wait to return.

Perfect for a long-term stay!

I stayed for two weeks while I was in between selling my house and moving into my new place! Amenities and everything were great! It was perfect! The only need I had was for a full length mirror but not a huge deal!
