Step Into History: Fully Renovated 1946 Bluffton Cottage in the Heart of Old Town!

Set in the heart of Old Town Bluffton, this mixed-use zoned property at 38 Boundary Street presents an extraordinary chance to live, work, or invest in one of the South’s most beloved small towns. Just across from Dubois Park and a short stroll to shops, galleries, and dining. Originally built in 1946, this quintessential Lowcountry cottage underwent a complete transformation in 2022 and is now being offered fully furnished. Every inch of the home blends timeless Bluffton charm with designer sophistication. The renovation spared no detail from the spray-foam insulation and tankless water heater to the custom finishes, luxury furnishings, and new appliances. The open living space is warm and inviting, highlighted by natural light, smooth ceilings, wood flooring, and a glass-enclosed fireplace. The kitchen features modern cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, wine cooler, and stylish tile accents. Both bedrooms are thoughtfully designed with a mix of comfort and function, and the screened porch extends the living space, offering a peaceful place to enjoy morning coffee or an evening cocktail under the canopy of Bluffton's oaks.

Beyond its beauty, this property presents an exceptional opportunity: An additional 500 sq feet can be added to the home with approval of the Historical Society and the lot can accommodate an additional structure of up to 1,200 square feet (up to 800 sq feet enclosed on slab and remaining on second level) allowing for a guest cottage, studio, or future income-producing addition. The homes metal roof, irrigation system, and hurricane protection add to its appeal, while the corner lot ensures privacy and presence in one of Bluffton's most cherished neighborhoods. Old Town Bluffton is known for its charm, character, and commitment to preservation. The Bluffton Historic Preservation Society, founded in 1981, plays a vital role in safeguarding the towns architectural heritage and the stories behind it ensuring that Bluffton's State of Mind endures for generations. Living in Old Town means being part of this remarkable legacy: a community where historic cottages stand beside galleries, farmers markets line the streets, and the May Rivers breezes remind residents daily why Bluffton is one of the Souths most sought-after small towns. 38 Boundary Street represents the rarest of opportunities to own an authentic piece of Bluffton history that's been beautifully reimagined for modern life, offering both an enviable location and the potential for future expansion right in the center of everything that makes Old Town so special.

OLD TOWN BLUFFTON

Discover Old Town Bluffton

Nestled on a high bluff overlooking the scenic May River, Old Town Bluffton captures the very essence of Lowcountry living. Beneath the canopy of century-old oak trees draped in Spanish moss, time slows down just enough for you to savor the charm, creativity, and community that define this historic town.

Originally settled in the early 1800s, Bluffton began as a summer retreat for coastal planters seeking the breezes of the riverfront. Today, Old Town blends its storied past with a vibrant present—where lovingly preserved cottages stand beside art galleries, local boutiques, and award-winning restaurants. The district’s walkable streets are filled with colorful character and the unmistakable warmth of Southern hospitality.

History and Heart

Old Town Bluffton’s roots run deep. Once the site of spirited gatherings and a thriving port community, much of it was destroyed during the Civil War, leaving behind a handful of treasured landmarks. These survivors—like the iconic Church of the Cross and the Heyward House Museum—anchor the town’s Historic District, which is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Preservation efforts ensure that Bluffton’s architecture and ambiance remain timeless, even as the community continues to evolve.

Experience the Lowcountry Lifestyle

Stroll down Calhoun Street, where artists, makers, and chefs bring Bluffton’s creative energy to life. Spend a Saturday morning at the Bluffton Farmers Market, browse unique shops filled with local craftsmanship, or relax at a café overlooking the May River. The waterfront parks and scenic trails invite you to linger a little longer—whether you’re catching a sunset on the dock or enjoying live music under the stars.

A Town Like No Other

Old Town Bluffton isn’t just a place—it’s a feeling. It’s the sound of church bells mingling with laughter from the front porch, the scent of southern cuisine drifting through the air, and the unmistakable sense of belonging that draws visitors back time and again. Rooted in history yet brimming with life, Old Town Bluffton remains the beating heart of the Lowcountry.
