Description

Tarover is a magnificent historic 5500 SF stone villa perfectly situated on a beautiful tract of pasture land with mature trees, a pond, and fencing all around. It was built in the Gothic Revival style in 1856 and renovated in the 1980s by a Charleston interior designer. The home is built in irregularly coursed quarried stone. Its elevation is dominated by a 2-story porch tower with a gable roof. The 1st story is an open porch with 3 Tudor-style openings, and the 2nd story has a diamond-paned oriel window. Triple-hung windows flank the tower and are capped with rough-hewn stone lintels. With 2 large wings opening out from its central-hall floor plan, it has a central stairway with balustrade. The home is located near popular Berry Hill. It needs a complete restoration to restore it to its original grandeur, possibly $750, 000 or more. The setting is pastoral with gently rolling pasture land, tall trees, and a pond. Behind the home is a stone barn that needs structural repairs. Toward the back of the property is the foundation of the original home from the 1700s.
