Front Porch Southern Living with The Sitgreaves House
Front Porch Southern Living – The Sitgreaves House
The Sitgreaves House in Laurens, South Carolina is a 1907 Queen Anne style beauty with a stately front porch that spans across the front and down the side of the home.
The single front door entrance has a screen door with charming scrollwork that makes me want to knock and go inside. The historical house has some architectural details to see.
Plus, this lovely lady with her columned front porch is being paraded around the real estate world for sale at $215,000.
Extensive details about the front porch include: “A hip roof porch extends across the facade and part of the east elevation.” and…
“The front porch features three-quarter length, Doric columns on paneled, wood piers; turned balustrade; ornamental medallions; and gabled pediment with sunburst design in the tympanum.” I love the screened door design and priced one at Menards and they are kind of expensive.

ROOMS WITH FIREPLACES
True to southern living, the home has nice bi-fold shutters on the windows.
Something I love about old homes are the pocket doors.
All the fireplaces have “tile surrounds and colonial revival mantels.”
KITCHEN
This ol’ kitchen needs some updating, but the over-sized windows and two doorways leading out are great.
The floor, ceiling, windows, and shape of this room is wonderful. All I can think about the paint color is call in the national guard for help!
BATHROOMS
Oh my gosh, the bathrooms are huge for an old house. Imagine the possibilities…
What! This Sitgreaves House is sort of a fun house that has all sorts of rooms and places to be.
I would not guess the stairs would lead to this room with a fireplace.
The back of the house has a deck that needs repair. By the looks of it, go up the stairs on the side of the garage..
and find an exercise room and bath.

Great comment Jeric and thanks for taking the time to visit us.
Thanks Anj, I thought the price was good for all the house you get.
Wow those bathrooms are huge great potential. This house is a beauty in the making. I’m sure whoever gets her will make such a beauty.
the house looks something out of a dream!!! what a lovely setting and peaceful environment.
The exterior of this home is a dream come true, and while the inside may need some tweaks, that’s part of the fun, right?
As others have pointed out, the price is fabulous!
Even for the area I think the house is a good buy with all the spacious rooms. It is crazy how much homes are in CA (I secretly love CA and the houses there) and I often wonder how anyone there affords them. My niece lives in CA now and probably like a lot of the younger crowd, she lives in an apartment. Your cottage would probably go for millions, but don’t let it go.
You’re the best and I agree 100%. The house has so much potential and a family could be so happy here with all the space.
Oh my gosh, that’s a great deal for this amazing house! Aside from the few minor repairs, she’s a beauty! I love the spacious rooms and that front porch is incredible. I always wanted a house with a front porch like that one. The bathrooms are so huge! When I look at the size of mine, I cringe!! I could spend months decorating that house. What a great summer home too!
I can’t believe how little that house is selling for. I guess it fits the adage – location … location … location. A house like that in my town would be close to a million. And with that much land – wow!
