About this property
Charming Historic Home within Walking Distance to Downtown
Take a step back in time and stay in the charming Walcott Cottage built in 1874. We are conveniently located within three blocks to downtown Broad Street and within the historic Dawson Street neighborhood. High ceilings, original heart pine floors, with modern conveniences, it's the perfect southern experience while in the City of Roses. With two bedrooms and two bathrooms on the main floor along with a third bedroom and home office on the second floor, you'll have everything you need. A full kitchen, living room, TVs, washer/dryer, mudroom, and outdoor yard, you'll have plenty of space to unwind and enjoy your vacation in our charming southern town.
Our family purchased Walcott Cottage in 2007.........over its life, the house has been a private residence, a flower shop, and an antiques store. It is a jewelbox of a house, and we hope you will unwind, enjoy walking around the neighborhood, and experiencing this special place. We can't wait to have you!

About the host
Hosted by Dorothy Cobb
Why they chose this property
After living in Europe, we were looking for a place where we could walk as much as possible without getting into our car. There are sidewalks to town and throughout the neighborhood. Being in the historic Dawson Street neighborhood, you are surrounded by historic homes. One of our favorite walks is down Dawson street admiring all the different architectural styles. You can hear the church bells ringing during the day.....it's the perfect in-town experience.
What makes this property unique
Walcott Cottage has 11 foot high ceilings and original heart pine floors that were restored in 2007. The house has an air of formality and grace with architectural details and elements that evoke Southern charm.
