THE RHETT HOUSE c. 1882. There is no better description of 205 Sumter Avenue than that of the Founder of the Preservation Society, renowned historian Beth McIntosh: ''The sweeping oaks, many azaleas and shrubs lining a circular drive, set the tall white house in a frame of green, giving it the special 'Summerville look' and feel; a combination of hospitality and privacy, of country space in city living.'' On Summerville's most beautiful street, 205 Sumter stands three blocks from the town square with restaurants, parks, tennis courts, walking trails, library, gym, shops, new arts center, salons, theatre, neighborhood wine shop and more. This is a true walk-everywhere location, as it was when it was built by Dr. Benjamin Rhett and his wife Julia Parker Rhett. (History in documents.)PROPERTY FEATURES
