Victorian pool home in Summerville! This beautifully updated turn-of-the-century Victorian sits on a generous corner lot in Augusta's sought-after Summerville neighborhood. Extensive renovations have enhanced the home while preserving its historic character, including a new main sewer line, custom Roman-style heated pool, complete kitchen renovation down to the studs, updated bathrooms with new vanities and fixtures, spray foam insulation in the crawlspace, custom trim and millwork, and refreshed landscaping. The care and attention invested in this home are evident throughout, with thoughtful updates that complement the original architecture, cohesive interior design, and a backyard designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A large covered front porch welcomes guests into the home, where hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and historic details create a warm first impression.

At the rear of the home, a recent to-the-studs renovation reveals a brilliant, brand new kitchen, complete with new appliances, a large single-basin sink, a walk-in pantry, and ample workspace.
