Circa 1902 Victorian Cottage located in the heart of Cottageville and rehabilitated in 2009 features a low-bay window, a porch with turned posts, decorative brackets, not one, but two, period front doors with beveled glass, transom and sidelights which perpetuates the Victorian style that was so prevalent during that era. The brackets supporting the gabled roof give additional charm and the tin-roof makes a perfect combination. In May 2009 the home received the William Lowndes Award by the Colleton County Historical and Preservation Society. Those are a few of the hidden treasures that abound in this property, others include details of quality craftsmanship to the original clawfoot tub in the hall bathroom.
