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.

Perfect for a long-term stay!

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!

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.

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.

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

We stayed at PHC for almost a month, waiting for our new home to be built. As we are Midwesterners, everything about the area was new and exciting. This location did not disappoint! Walks into town for coffee, dinner, the farmer’s market were all 5-10 minutes away. Our dog loved his walks thru Azalea Park, especially once he realized the statues in the park were not going to move! Trips to the Kiawah Beachwalker Park were an easy and beautiful drive. The cottage was stocked with everything we needed, including a washer and dryer, comfortable sitting area, updated bath and plenty of ceiling fans. On the grounds of the cottage the gardens are lovely. The patio and gas grill were used frequently. The noisy frogs initially were quite shocking, but we grew to love them! 😅 All in all we had a wonderful time in Summerville and would recommend staying here!

David and Jennifer were amazing hosts. We had an evening arrival from Oregon and they were very accommodating to our arrival time. The cottage was exactly what we wanted for the charm of Summerville. We had everything we needed and the cottage was very private. We will return to this property when we visit our daughter again!

The property was more impressive in person with every detail in place.

This charming cottage is a the ideal hideaway, whether touring Summerville or visiting friends and family. With a private drive and secluded patio one can enjoy the area with a unusual degree of independence. The hosts, who are wonderful people, have thought of everything - great lighting to enjoy the little library, crisp sheets and soft towels, nice toiletries, and a organized kitchen. The cleanliness and comfort of this cottage are a pleasure and the gardens are the icing on the cake. The hosts have created the ideal get-away.

I have really enjoyed my time staying at the Price House Cottage. It is well cared for, and a beautiful place to rest and enjoy the beauty of Summerville amid the house gardens, birds chirping, frogs croaking and and rainfall on the tin roof. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone staying in Summerville. Thank you so much David and Jennifer for a wonderful time!
