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 washer/dryer is available for guest use at the Cottage.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

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.

The cottage was a great place to stay and a very neat experience for me. I’ve never stayed in a place dating back this far and it was truly a wonderful place to stay. Cozy, comfortable and close to everything. Gorgeous property!

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.

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!

Lovely Home in a Beautiful Location

Our stay was perfect and the home was beautiful. David was a most gracious host and even waited up until almost midnight for us the night we arrived in Summerville from KY. Perfect for our anniversary week in Charleston, immaculate and with everything we needed, we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The neighborhood was beautiful too, with gorgeous Southern homes and amazing Live Oak trees that we certainly don't have in KY! Hghly recommended!

Lovely cottage

Price House Cottage was great for our Charleston visit! Cottage was exactly as listed and more. Loved sitting in the garden for morning coffee and later in the day after visiting Charleston. Loved the character of the cottage. David was easy to communicate with and he was very helpful with any questions. Would definitely stay here again!

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.

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.
