Summerville speaks beauty. Her voice breathes tranquility through regal pines, moss laden oaks and her renown trumpet-shaped blooms. In 1891, the Pine Forest Inn opened for those in need of a quiet and restful vacation. A stroll down Lovers Lane brought you to the edge of this beautiful present estate. In the late 1940's, well known architect Archie Myers was hired to design a home fashioned after Monticello but without the dome. Situated on a hill among oaks, magnolias, and huge camilia bushes is the solid brick replica, the "Monticello of the South". The results are harmonious. The grand antebellum porch and entry suggest earlier days. Exquisite, handmade crown molding and detailed mantels grace the formal living and family rooms with built-ins and surround sound. Prepare meals in your bright eat in kitchen with lots of cabinet space and walk-in pantry or entertain guests in your oversize formal dining room. Follow the original, gleaming oak floors to the master suite with soaring ceilings, original tiled bath, cedar closet and private study. The octagonal solarium overlooks the luscious landscaping and spring fed lake with its own fish and mallard ducks. The present owners, Dr.and Mrs. Ray Hayes, have renovated the second floor and added over 2000 sqft that could be a lovely mother-in-law suite, game room, play room or whatever you need it to be. The additional storage is unbelievable! This is a dream home for the buyer fortunate enough to purchase the Monticello of the south.
