Description
Circa 1790. This 18th-century waterfront mansion, listed in the National Register, boasts a veranda overlooking Beaufort Bay. The home was built during Washington's presidency, and General W.T. Sherman was once a guest here. The home has been lovingly restored to its original grandeur. Rich painted walls are highlighted by fine molding. Hardwood floors are topped with Oriental rugs and elegant 19th-century furnishings. The morning meal is served in a breakfast room that overlooks the water. The surrounding area offers plenty of activities in every season, and for those celebrating a new marriage, a honeymoon suite is available.Publicity and Awards: Southern Living, Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Glamour, Travel & Leisure, Delta Airlines Sky Magazine, Shape Magazine, Coastal Living, Favorite Inns, HGTV ("If Walls Could Talk"), Top 10 Most Romantic Inns.Location: Waterfront and Beaufort Bay-waterfront.
