Summerville, SC ** Mateeba Estates ** 138 Ashley River Drive ** Mateeba Estates ** Summerville, SC

Welcome home to 138 Ashley River Drive!

This is an amazing opportunity for true lowcountry living with the privacy and nature this acreage provides.  This adorable cottage sits on just over an acre with the opportunity to use more land behind the property.  Surrounded by mature landscaping, you will have a private sanctuary to enjoy while being conveniently located to all the amenities you need in Summerville.  The neighborhood has a boat ramp (located right next to this home) to the Ashley River with a very large area for riverside picnics, parties and gatherings for you to enjoy while having unobstructed views of the river and surrounding marsh.  Some of the best features of the home are the porches and yard.  Fully wrapping around the home, the large porches are a great place to sit, enjoy the breeze and enjoy the abundant nature. What better neighbor to have then Middleton Plantation?  The fenced yard has been designed for a mix of gardening and pets so you have the ability to plant your award-winning garden while keeping the pets separated.  The owners filled in the swimming pool to create an area for a vegetable garden that has provided years of great vegetables for them to enjoy. 


The updated kitchen with a breakfast area is a great place for family and friends to gather while the chef of the house prepares their favorite meal with the double wall oven with convection oven.  The solid cherry cabinets provide PLENTY of storage and counter space and also has a built in bar providing another area to sit for a meal.  Located off the kitchen is the living room, with a large stone fireplace that leads out to one of the MANY porches where you can enjoy nature and relax at the end of the day.  The master suite is located on the main floor and has its own private screened porch overlooking the back yard, a great place to enjoy a peaceful morning cup of coffee.  The split floor plan upstairs provides a great layout for the 2 guestrooms, both having walk-in closets with a small sitting area between the rooms.  The detached garage has a finished room upstairs that can be easily converted to an apartment, or kept as is for a man cave or game room.  Downstairs there is also a bathroom and shower.  The owners have loved and cared for this home for years creating many great memories, this is a great opportunity for you to do the same!

Why the seller loves living here:

One thing we love about Summerville is that it still has the feel and character of a small town but is only minutes from world class restaurants and shopping.

Our neighborhood is great for evening walks, sitting on your front porch, oyster roasts and Lowcountry boils with friends, family and neighbors.

We love to eat at many of the wonderful local restaurants, but for a special occasion we like to dine at Middleton Place – a five minute drive from our front door.

Publix, Harris Teeter, Earth Fare are just to name a few of the grocery stores available.

When we bought this property, we were drawn to how peaceful it is.  After working all day and dealing with the stresses of work, etc.,  you feel it all leave as soon as you turn on Ashley River Drive.

Love that we can put our boat in the Ashley River and never leave the neighborhood.  You can have a party or picnic right by the river.  Nature is abundant.  Always something to see.  Eagles fly right over the house and owls hoot at night.
We love birdwatching and this area is world class for birding.  We also love gardening and have a wonderful organic garden.

Since we installed a new heat pump last year, our average electric bill is $186/month.

SCEG/Suburban Propane/Republic Trash/Buck’s Well and Drilling.  Have never had to call anyone about the septic tank.
