Zillow.com provided this description for the $550,000 home:

"Discover the charm, beauty and history of this must see home. This historic property is located in the heart of the Historic District of downtown Summerville. Originally built on Railroad Avenue in the 1890's and moved to its current location in the mid 20th century, it is remarkable for its preserved condition and size. As you enter this home you will find beautiful crown molding, 100 year old heart pine floors, four original fireplaces, and a close-to-original floor plan. The first floor has five public rooms including the kitchen, dining room, reception parlor and two other generously sized rooms that could be comfortable family living space and a study/office. In addition the downstairs has a private bedroom and bath and laundry/powder room. The large master suite is upstairs with two other bedrooms that share a bath. Each bath in the main house is equipped with a tub and separate shower. An adjacent 331 square foot guest suite with a full bath is perfect for visitors, an office or a large exercise room (the current owners are using this area to store excess furniture now). The wooded yard has great potential with over half an acre full of heirloom azaleas, camellias and mature magnolias and oaks. A lovely brick post and picket fence partially surrounds the property. Imagine being within walking distance of Azalea Park, downtown shopping, and all that Summerville offers. This is a great home for the discerning buyer interested in beauty, history and value."
