The space
We bought this house a couple of years ago and have just finished restoring it in July of 2015. Originally built in 1889, this was originally the kitchen to a larger historic home next door. The oldest part of the home was just two rooms; the kitchen and the servants quarters. But it was added onto by 1914 and it maintains that original footprint today.

There is one bedroom with a king bed, closet storage and a window seat. There is a queen room with its own storage, and a window seat also. The bathroom has marble floor and countertops and all new plumbing and fixtures. The hot water heater is tankless, so you don't have to worry about ever running out!

The kitchen has a refrigerator with a freezer, a dishwasher, garbage disposal, full size oven and a four burner electric cooktop. It is fully outfitted with cookware, utensils and plenty of plates and glasses. There is also a drip coffee maker, food processor and a toaster

The living room has a comfortable sofa and several upholstered chairs. The 32" Samsung HDTV comes with cable and TiVo DVR. There is also a private WiFi network for the house and a Bose Radio with a headphone jack to connect to your smartphone or other music device.

The rear porch has a table seating for 4-6 and a gas grill. There is dedicated off street parking for two cars.

Neighbourhood highlights

If you're visiting an historic town, where better to be than in the middle of the historic district? You'll be surrounded by homes that date back to the 1700s and still be close enough to walk to restaurants and parks. If you want to go to the beach, we're about 15 miles from Hunting Island State park, the most popular state park in South Carolina.

Born in the 70s
My work: Freelance Photographer
My wife and I are both in the design business. She's an interior designer and I do architectural and Interiors photography, so you can be sure we put a lot of thought into the space we're renting. I grew up here in Beaufort but met my wife in Manhattan where we lived for a few years before I convinced her to be here full time.
