PRICE JUST REDUCED ON BEAUTIFUL SOUTHERN B&B!!

Fantastic Southern home built in 1905. Kitchen updated in 2008 - granite countertops, 2 sinks, stainless steel, glass tile. Over 6000 sq ft have been lovingly restored since 2005 when 2 guest rooms were added to the carriage house - one is handicap accessible and includes a roll-in shower.

Both floors of the main house boast 12' ceilings -- the two carriage house rooms have cathedral ceilings. Architectural details include an ornate staircase with two landings, breakfront in dining room, beautiful woodwork and moldings throughout, built-in book shelves, 6 fireplaces. New metal roofs on all 4 buildings.

Exterior boasts large white columns, spacious wrap around verandah with porch swing. All decking on verandah replaced in 2008. Charming brick patio is perfect for outdoor events. In-ground pool is surrounded by lush gardens and has pool bathroom and shower. The entire property is beautifully landscaped - perfect for weddings!

Separate owner's quarters (or 7th guest suite) with private entrance is on the main floor. Master bath was completely renovated in 2007 and includes a Jacuzzi tub. 3-room area includes large bedroom, bathroom, and separate sitting room.

There are 13 rooms to wander through - even with a house full of guests, privacy is not an issue. Common rooms include parlour, library, dining room, and 2nd floor guest foyer. Large and spacious kitchen (just updated!!) has double ovens, large island, and fireplace. Laundry room boasts space for 2 dryers, utility sink, and a 2nd refrigerator.

4 buildings on property. Entire property is fenced and gated. Two new sets of custom wood swing doors added to the carriage house in 2009.

Located in growing Southern community close to the Florida border. 6 spacious guest units (4 in the main house, 2 in the carriage house), each with private bathroom. Approx 40% occupancy with room to grow. 50/50 split between commercial and leisure customers. Though we have had to dramatically decrease the number of special events on site (due to illness), there is a good demand for that business and the house and grounds are well suited to it.

Business holds a special events license for weddings, etc.
Catering is another income channel well worth looking into by prospective buyers.
