Carriage House under Live Oaks In Historic Downtown Beaufort with Patio Garden

This lovely South Carolina unit called Sweetgrass, in downtown Beaufort, is on the street level of the carriage house one block from the Beaufort River. It has two bedrooms, one queen bed and one antique bed (a little wider than a twin) and one bath (connected to each bedroom), hardwood floors throughout, cable TV, and a fully equipped kitchen. Relax on the covered porch and furnished patio surrounded by 100 year old oak trees draped with Spanish moss and lovely gardens.
This carriage house, recently brought back to life after many years of neglect, sits next to our home, Craven House. It truly is the best location in Beaufort, surrounded by stately mansions and rich history, allowing one to walk to restaurants, shops, museums and the waterfront park by the marina. It is an easy drive to Paris Island, the Sands beach in Port Royal and Hunting beach on the ocean.

Beautiful and very very clean. So many thoughtful extras in the house. Could easily walk everywhere and keep the car parked in driveway. My favorite things were the rocking chairs and porch swing overlooking shady yard.

The carriage house suite was very clean. Everything we needed was there and very well organized. The beds were very comfortable. We parked our car and walked everywhere. My niece stopped in to see us. Her comment was this is where she would definitely stay if she visited the area.

We had a wonderful stay at the Carriage House! Ellen was very welcoming and communication was great. The house was charming, comfortable and shiny clean. The location is perfect for exploring Beaufort. We could easily walk to shops, restaurants, museums, and tours. We often sat on the porch for a cup of tea or glass of wine in the afternoon. We hope to stay again next year.

Absolutely charming and beautifully appointed carriage house! The perfect location for enjoying everything that Beaufort has to offer. Walking distance (2 blocks) from “town” and the river park. An easy loop through historic Beaufort for getting your steps in. And Southern hospitality at its best from beginning to end.
