This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom gem is just a short stroll from the future Lowcountry Lowline, Hampton Park, and some of Charleston's most sought-after restaurants--a prime location that makes this home even more exceptional.Step through the restored original front door into the light-filled sunporch, the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening cocktails. The spacious living room features beautiful original windows and a classic brick fireplace, seamlessly connecting to the formal dining room through original glass pocket doors. The fully renovated kitchen is a showstopper, boasting marble countertops, a 30" Bertazzoni gas range, Bosch dishwasher, Elica vented range hood, brass fixtures, and locally sourced crystal cabinet hardware. The original wood-framed picture windows bathe the space in natural light while a ceramic heat-reducing film enhances energy efficiency. A door leads directly to the wraparound backyard deck, ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining. Two large bedrooms feature custom window treatments. The third bedroom, perfect for a home office or nursery, connects to the stunning ensuite bath with vaulted ceilings, a marble-tiled shower, quartz countertops, and designer fixtures. Off this space, the renovated laundry room includes soapstone counters, built-ins, and an exterior door leading to the backyard deck. The hall bath features the original refinished cast iron clawfoot tub/shower and a vintage wall sink showcasing the original character of the home. Outside, the backyard landscaping has been completely refreshed, offering a serene retreat in the heart of downtown. The newer deck features a custom outdoor shower and a 1938 cast iron gardening sink, adding to the home's historic charm. A large storage shed provides ample space for storage or could be transformed into a backyard entertaining structure or even an ADU.
