Charming 1920s Cottage Near Summerville - Classic Character Meets Modern Comfort
Nestled just minutes from the heart of Augusta's desirable Summerville district, this beautifully preserved 1923 cottage offers the perfect blend of timeless character and modern-day convenience. From the moment you arrive, you'll be drawn in by its classic curb appeal—double-column porch posts, a wide front walkway, and a deep, inviting front porch lead to a full-panel glass front door framed by elegant sidelights.
Inside, the home exudes warmth and craftsmanship with original hardwood floors, rich trimwork, artisan-style fireplace mantels, and generous natural light from plentiful windows. Every detail nods to its historic roots while offering contemporary livability.
The thoughtfully updated kitchen balances style and function, featuring Shaker-style cabinetry with glass-front uppers, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a gas range, a pantry, and charming beadboard accents—all echoing the home's cottage aesthetic.
The spacious primary suite is a true retreat, highlighted by a luxurious ensuite bath complete with a soaking tub, large tiled shower, dual vanity, and plantation-shuttered windows. The second bedroom also enjoys direct access to a well-appointed full bathroom featuring detailed original tilework, a tub/shower combo, beadboard accents, and more plantation shutters.
A bright laundry/mudroom just off the kitchen offers convenient access to the back deck—perfect for transitioning from indoor to outdoor living.
Out back, you'll find a large, fenced yard ideal for gardening, entertaining, or play, with a spacious deck and a storage shed to keep things tidy.
Located just minutes from downtown Augusta, Augusta University, dining, and more, this move-in ready home is a rare find—rich in character, smartly updated, and full of Southern charm.
