Sommer House

The property had previously belonged to Dorothy Sommers, a German, who had fittingly nicknamed the gabled cottage Peace Place. Once she left Whitefield, the bungalow changed many hands till it came to be owned by a formidable captain intent on not selling the place to anyone ever. Jamal elaborates on how he succeeded in convincing the captain that he was the right person to possess the house, “You

see, everyone wanted to buy the property, to destroy it and build something commercial here. People were trying to bribe and strike under-the-table deals. I was upfront with the captain and eventually became his friend.”

Fast forward a few years later,The Sommer House is a place of beauty, nestled in landscaped gardens, riddled with grass stone path ways leading up to the gazebo, which watches over the gardens.The Property is adorned with a two bedroom cottage which takes you back in time .Four post beds in each room, with vintage dressing tables for the women and a hat stand for the men. The Sommer House has now opened up its doors to the world and to the residents of Whitefield to experience its charm and beauty.We want you to be a part of this beautiful piece of heritage and create your own memories.
