Well it’s been nice touring with you… this is my favorite house on Sullivan’s Island, not that I’ve been in many houses on S.I. but once you’re in this one there just can’t be a comparison. CAN’T. BE. I’ve mentioned in previous posts that this project was done by Gray Wade, LLC. Contact information is at the bottom of this page. In closing I would just like to showcase a few of the design ideas that I really loved. That’s ME, personally… certainly no expert, well, hmmm, I take that back. Fred and I have exquisite taste, hee hee… seriously, we both love design. It’s what we do in our off time. Our walls have been umpteen colors over the 16 years that we’ve lived here. Our dining room has been in three different rooms, basically every room has changed except for the kitchen and bathrooms. We have serious fun doing it, and we love it with each change. If you need something different but a new house isn’t in the budget, or if you just love where you live (we do!) changing things around can make all the difference… that includes paintings!

Enjoy the rest of the tour!

I’ve enjoyed your company on this visit, catch you back here tomorrow!

I love going on home tours, what can be better? It’s especially nice doing it from the comfort of your air conditioned space wherever you may be, right? Like I mentioned in previous posts, this is a house that was built/remodeled by GRAY WADE, LLC. owned by Michael and Alison Brewer. They took a small, old, very rough cottage and renovated it, adding on a substantial amount of square feet, AND it’s mighty difficult to tell the old from the new. In the newly designed space part of the original cottage became the entryway and what I call the library/piano room. I asked Michael about the space and he said that the floors and the glass are original. Everything else has been made to look like the old… They found the push button switches at a specialty store, and whoa… those little details MAKE A DIFFERENCE! The light fixtures are custom made and the string and bulb matches the original… This cottage has been lovingly restored to it’s original splendor! Enjoy the pics… .
