This home is beautiful in its grandeur and style. The pictures are accurate but do not do it justice. It has been updated while preserving the original architectural details. It is thoughtfully decorated with details specific of that time. I personally love homes of this era, 1920’s-1930’s. Be sure to give yourself some time to soak it all in and to learn the history of the home. It is like walking through a museum.
The hosts have thoughtfully provided a timeline explaining the history of the home. They are actually descendants of a former owner and recently acquired the home brining it back to the family name. It is clear that the hosts are invested in the property and it shows. Of note, the hosts are on the same street. They are very responsive but not intrusive. I received quick responses to any texts or calls. They are lovely and extremely hospitable.
The neighborhood, Cheraw, SC is small and quaint. The few restaurants and shops are within walking distance of the home. The home has a binder outlining many of the dining and recreational options of Cheraw. The town is very walkable. The home is on a residential quiet road. We felt very safe and the home has a security alarm but we did not find the need to activate it.
This house is spacious, neat and clean. We were a family gathering (all adults) to celebrate my mother’s 60th birthday. There is plenty of room to accommodate a large family with several common rooms/ sitting rooms/ sitting porches. The handicap accessibility was particularly useful (1st floor master en-suite and outdoor ramp). The modern kitchen has all you could think of and more to fix up a meal or even a large celebratory/ holiday feast. Some areas even have a Sonos sound system you can connect to via Bluetooth.
The bedrooms are all spacious with comfortable beds, linens and pillows. Each bathroom is well appointed with towels and basic toiletries.
Initially, I was hesitant to book this home as it appears to be a newer listing but I have no regrets! To the hosts: We graciously appreciate your warm hospitality and thank you for sharing your gorgeous home!
