There is nothing quite like high tea in the garden of a historic bed and breakfast, and this spring, Harcourts Carolinas was honored to host an intimate High Tea event in Columbia, SC in collaboration with the owners of the beautiful and historic Chestnut Cottage Bed & Breakfast.
Set beneath blooming gardens and Southern sunshine, guests enjoyed traditional high tea service while a live string duet filled the air with soft, classical music, creating an atmosphere that felt straight out of another era. This private, invitation-only event welcomed 30 of our past clients and friends as a special thank-you for being part of the Harcourts Carolinas family.
Adding to the fun and elegance of the afternoon, Chestnut Cottage generously provided a complimentary overnight stay at their historic B&B for the guest with the best hat and tea-time attire, a friendly competition that brought out stunning dresses, classic fascinators, and plenty of Southern charm.
At Harcourts Carolinas, we believe real estate is about far more than transactions. It’s about relationships, community, and celebrating the places that make Columbia and the Midlands so special. Partnering with local small businesses like Chestnut Cottage allows us to support historic preservation, local tourism, and the unique character of downtown Columbia while creating unforgettable experiences for our clients.
From historic homes to community-centered events, Harcourts Carolinas is proud to connect people not only to beautiful properties, but to the lifestyle, culture, and history that make this region such an incredible place to call home.
