Timeless 1930s Farmhouse Estate in the Heart of Summerville

Just one block from Summerville’s historic district lies a rare gem, a beautifully preserved 1930s farmhouse-style estate that blends the charm of a bygone era with the comfort and ease of modern living. Set on over two private, gated acres, this tranquil sanctuary offers the feeling of country living, right in the heart of town.

From the moment you arrive, the home’s timeless character is immediately evident. Framed by multiple varieties of azaleas, wisteria, and majestic live oaks, the black-and-white marble terrace offers a gracious welcome. Originally built in the 1930s, the residence blends classic farmhouse charm with relaxed sophistication. The front yard, currently secluded for privacy, can be opened to create a more expansive, inviting presence, or enjoyed as a second backyard retreat.

Inside, original hardwood floors, working shutters, and intricate picture moldings highlight the home’s heritage, while thoughtful updates make it perfectly suited for contemporary living. The spacious living room, anchored by a handsome fireplace, offers a welcoming atmosphere ideal for family gatherings or quiet evenings.

The dining room exudes charm, ideal for entertaining, while the thoughtfully renovated kitchen is a chef’s dream. Featuring a farmhouse sink, custom tile floors, premium stainless steel appliances including a gas range, a walk-in pantry, and wood-paneled ceilings with pendant lighting, the kitchen beautifully bridges rustic style and modern function.

A cozy room just off the kitchen offers the perfect spot for a home office, complete with peaceful views of the lush grounds.

The main-level primary suite is a true retreat, featuring its own fireplace, a generous walk-in closet, and oversized windows that bathe the space in natural light. The spa-inspired en-suite bath includes a soaking tub, frameless glass shower, and custom double vanity.

Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms (including one en-suite) provide comfort and privacy for family or guests, along with ample storage throughout.

Step outside to enjoy the best of Lowcountry living. A brick-paved patio leads to a sparkling in-ground saltwater pool, ideal for relaxing or entertaining. The property also includes raised garden beds, a charming his-and-hers chicken coop, and an open-air pavilion that doubles as a carport or outdoor entertaining space.

Located just minutes from downtown Summerville’s shops, dining, parks, and cultural landmarks, and within easy reach of Charleston, beaches, and major employers like Boeing, Volvo, Bosch, and Google, this historic estate offers rare seclusion without sacrificing convenience.
