Overview
These opportunities don't come often. Updated and remodeled circa 1940 home on 1.59 acres in town. The Howell home was built by renowned Summerville carpenter, Tom Smith, in a Spanish ranch style architecture with stucco exterior, wrought iron gates and screens, and arched doorways and porch openings. Property includes a main house of approx. 3227 square feet and also a separate 620 square foot carriage house. Main house features 9' ceilings, beautiful oak hardwood flooring, built in bookshelves, gas fireplaces, a large formal dining room and much more. Three bedrooms, including a very large master, with his and hers walk in closet storage, plus a newly added master bath addition with vaulted bead board ceiling, ambient lighting, copper vessel sink, oversized jetted tub, and large walk in shower with steam bath and multiple spray heads. Kitchen has also been remodeled to include a gas cook top with back draft ventilation, wall oven, granite countertops, and high quality cabinetry. Wrought iron gates were also salvaged from the property and create an interesting entry to the kitchen pantry. The second bedroom is well sized and includes an on-suite powder room with pedestal sink. The third bedroom was used as an office and for fitness equipment, but retains multipurpose abilities with a built in murphy bed. Some other unique and appreciated features include a salvaged barn door on sliding frame that separates the kitchen from the casual dining area, a walk down basement from the kitchen that could be finished into a unique wine cellar, high built in book shelves in front hallway, an enclosed rear porch with built in wall raised gas fireplace, flagstone flooring and arched exterior doorways, built in outside grill, tank less gas water heater, and newly installed architectural roof shingles. Large laundry utility room with rear exterior access, sink, and plenty of room for additional freezer or other appliances. The grounds were designed by well-known landscape architect Robert Chestnut, and include separate front and rear entrances to the property, pea gravel driveways, slate stones on patio and walking pathways through the property's many azaleas, camellias, dogwoods, and other native plants. Outbuildings include a storage shed, green house, chicken coop, and finished carriage house. The carriage house includes a bedroom, living area with exposed ceiling rafters, kitchen, and full bath. Makes a great guest house or rental income opportunity. Too many wonderful features with this property to include all here Schedule your private showing of this fine Summerville home today!
