Historic Summerville
. . . "Flower Town in the
Pines," she is called, once a retreat for
plantation owners wanting to escape the
balminess of the low-country marshlands (and no
doubt the sand-fleas or no-see-ums indigenous
to low-country marshlands). Summerville has a
very quaint historic district featuring local
shops, a delightful small-town bookstore
complete with a (mostly) friendly cat, and the
Flowertown Players at the Summerville Community
Theater. If you're looking for a place to move
near the Charleston Area, you can get a lot of
house for the money in Summerville. Summerville
also offers some of the best schools in South
Carolina. The recently renewed shopping
corridor on Route 17A near I-26 brings all of
the necessities near your doorstep including a
movie theater, Discount Stores, Restaurants,
Grocery Stores, and of course the dueling Home
Depot and Lowes home improvement
centers. |
