Joye Cottage renovation told as labor of love in Aiken
Naifeh and Smith purchased Joye Cottage for 2.8 million after finding it dilapidated from its 1830s farmhouse roots. They rebuilt porches, replaced plaster, added a basement, and expanded 5,000 square feet while preserving the exterior. The project, begun in the 1980s, culminated in a 20,000 square foot home featuring an art gallery, pool, and theater, listed on the National Register.
