Property Description

Nestled in the heart of the Historic District in Summerville, 216 W. Carolina Avenue offers a rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored 1890 residence that perfectly blends timeless character with modern comfort. Situated on an expansive 0.6-acre lot, a true rarity downtown, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home spans just over 2,500 square feet and is being offered fully furnished, creating a seamless, turn-key experience.From the moment you arrive, the home's iconic wrap-around porch sets the tone. It invites slow mornings with coffee, afternoon conversations with neighbors, and peaceful evenings under the Lowcountry sky. Mature landscaping, privacy fencing, and off-street parking enhance both curb appeal and functionality.Inside, historic details immediately capture your attention.Original wide-plank heart pine floors, soaring ceilings, multiple fireplaces, and custom mahogany entry doors showcase craftsmanship that simply cannot be replicated. The thoughtful renovation honors the integrity of the home while incorporating elevated finishes throughout.

The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, brand-new appliances, and stylish yet timeless selections that complement the home's rich architectural history. Designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, the layout flows beautifully between spaces. A private dining room provides the perfect setting for gatherings, while the sunroom with custom banquet seating offers a light-filled retreat. The cozy keeping room creates an inviting space to relax by the fire.

The flexible floor plan includes a main-level guest suite ideal for visitors, multigenerational living, or additional privacy. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is a serene retreat, complete with a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring a vintage clawfoot soaking tub and separate shower a timeless nod to the home's 1890 origins. Two additional bedrooms and well-designed baths provide comfort and convenience for family or guests.

Beyond its charm as a private residence, the property has previously operated as a successful short-term rental, offering proven income potential. Whether continued as an investment property, enjoyed as a second home, or embraced as a full-time residence, the versatility is exceptional. Being sold fully furnished allows the next owner to step directly into its established success or immediately enjoy the thoughtfully curated interiors.

Location is everything, and this address delivers. Just steps from downtown Summerville's boutiques, award-winning restaurants, parks, farmers markets, and seasonal festivals, the lifestyle here is truly unmatched.
