Modern Retro Ranch in Historic Summerville!

Tucked away at the edge of the historic district, our Retro Ranch was built in 1961. We fell in love the moment we saw it and immediately began turning it into the shining star it was meant to be.

Our goal in renovations was to keep all the integrity and character that come with a traditional brick ranch, but to do it with fun, modern twists. When you arrive, you're greeted with a rocking chair-lined front porch and a spacious carport. Upon entering the home, you'll find the original stone entryway, (new) vintage wallpapers, original wavy windows, some plaster walls and shiny refinished heart pine floors. Oh, and the sunken living room with french doors opening into the huge fenced backyard!

From there, you'll start to notice the fine touches...The white quartz countertops and cutout 'diner style' window between the kitchen and the dining room, complete with barstools for a true breakfast counter experience. The black and white tiled laundry room with full-sized washer and dryer, the crystal light fixtures peppered throughout the house. And last but not least, our pride and joy: the master suite. Tucked away at the back of the house for ultimate privacy, this spacious bedroom is the ultimate slice of peace and quiet, complete with a large custom bathroom featuring dual vanities, tiled double shower, freestanding soaking tub and private toilet room.

It means so much to us to think of guests enjoying our little labor of love as much as we do and we trust that you’ll help us keep it in great shape for years to come. Please be sure to sign our guestbook before you leave.

Thank you so much for visiting!

Great home, centrally located, as described in listing
We enjoyed our recent stay at the "retro ranch." The property is spacious and clean and was perfect for our family of five. We will certainly try to book this property again the next time we're visiting family in Summerville.

Beautiful Home
We loved our stay. The house was terrific, impeccably clean,well-maintained, and tucked away in a small community in Summerville. The backyard is fenced-in, so my dogs enjoyed exploring the large yard. Our experience staying in the house was great! We hope to stay again on our next trip.

Great location
We really enjoyed our stay in this cute retro ranch. We were relocating to Summerville and needed a place to stay between closings. This was the perfect solution. It was very roomy and nicely decorated. The proximity to the town of Summerville was an added bonus.

The house was great! The yard was perfect if you’re traveling with a pet and the neighborhood was very walkable. My only small suggestion would be to replace the bath towels.

Loved this home
This home was perfect for us. Everything we needed was here and great detailed information. Visited for our Grandson’s ‘Recognition and Corps Day” at the Citadel in Charleston and spent most of our time there with a full slate of events. We enjoyed coming back to Summerville to relax. Enjoyed a few local restaurants, especially Oscars. We recommend the ‘Retro Ranch’

This home is located in a safe neighborhood to walk and spend time to relax.

Super Stay in Summerville!!!
We had a fabulous month at the modern retro ranch. It was a very comfortable stay with a short drive to great places to eat/visit. We felt very safe in this quiet neighborhood and enjoyed walking and biking. The house exceeding our expectations in comfort and was supplied with everything we needed. We would love to return.

Second time we stayed at a home hosted by Erin. Definitely not disappointed during our 19 night stay. Great house for my husband and I. Our Pekingese, Elsie, loved the fenced in yard and chasing the squirrels not too mention a few deer as well!! The house has everything you would need…lots of space, plenty of amenities and great location. We will definitely be back!!

Weekend in Summerville
Great house in a great location. Quiet neighborhood but only 3-5 minutes to the heart of historic downtown Summerville and 15 mins to the best cluster of restaurants outside Downtown Charleston (Nexton - Halls Chophouse, Poogan's). The host has done a charming job of renovating a Mid-Century era brick home into a retro cool open-concept marvel. See how many French bulldog motifs you can spot! :)
