The kitchen is a chef's dream, outfitted with stainless steel appliances, white cabinetry, a detailed backsplash, ample counter space, and pendant lighting over a seated island. Adjacent, the 360 sq. ft. family room is an airy retreat with Brazilian cherry floors, six Pella windows, and glass double doors that showcase views of a magnificent 200-year-old live oak tree. From here, step onto the large back deck and patio and into a truly enchanting garden filled with curated Southern plantings, azaleas, crepe myrtles, and tea olives that create a dreamlike atmosphere. With what could be up to 5 private bedrooms/offices and two and a half bathrooms in the existing floorplan, the home offers flexibility to accommodate both family living and business functions. The expansive backyard is partially fenced for privacy yet located just steps from Summerville's vibrant downtown shopping, dining, and professional districts. Whether used for personal enjoyment or entertaining clients, the outdoor space enhances the property's lifestyle and commercial value alike. Upstairs, an unfinished attic with 10-foot ceilings and 300-400 sq. ft. of space offers potential for additional living quarters, office space, or even a private studio. 318 North Magnolia is more than just a home, it is a statement piece and a strategic investment. With its unique dual zoning, prime location, and rare blend of history and modern amenities, this is a truly one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a cornerstone of Summerville's heritage while shaping its future. Whether you're looking to live, work, entertain, or inspire, this is the address that makes it all possible.
