217 Sumter

This Beautiful 1860’s home located in the historic district of downtown Summerville offers the

easy life of sweet tea and porch swings. Shaded by oak trees, this magnificent home with deep

double porches has been featured on Summerville’s historic walking tours. You’ll discover

vintage details and Southern charm throughout this home including original plaster details,

intricate moldings and working transom windows above the doorways. The living room is the

heart of the first floor, with built-in bookcases and a fireplace topped with a mantel brought to the

site from Hope Plantation. Light floods the room from the front bay window and its unique

arched opening creates an intimate, cozy nook. The rooms have an open feel, with 12’ ft ceilings

and French doors that access the outdoor porches. With gleaming original hardwood floors

underfoot, you move easily into the spacious dining room with second fireplace and elegant

chandelier. A newly renovated butler’s pantry makes entertaining easy. The stunning, renovated

kitchen is truly a cook’s dream. Showcasing a center island with bar seating, custom cabinetry,

granite counter tops, and commercial stainless steel appliances, including Bosch ovens and

warming drawer, no modern detail was overlooked. It includes a comfortable sitting area where

friends are sure to gather, or you can sit with a cup of coffee to start your day. The wide central

hallway leads to a spacious first floor den, with full private bath. The original staircase leads to a

wide landing and upstairs hallway, and the master suite. Here you’ll find another fireplace, access

to the second story porch and lovely master bath with dual sinks, elegant marble surfaces and

large walk-in closet. There are two additional bedrooms and a fully finished third floor walk-up

attic ideal for home office or gym.

This elegant historic home is meant for family, friends and Southern-style entertaining.
