Property Description
Steeped in Charleston history and curated for modern living, this circa-1920 residence seamlessly blends original character with exceptional updates. Renovated in 2014, the home has since been further enhanced by its current owners, who meticulously designed the interiors and transformed the outdoor living spaces while honoring the home's timeless architectural integrity.Throughout the home, custom white oak cabinetry and millwork create warmth and continuity, complemented by marble bathrooms, California Closet systems, and carefully selected finishes, including Rohl and Perrin & Rowe fixtures. The primary suite offers a spa-like retreat with a steam shower, a striking calcite stone chandelier, and beautifully appointed storage. Multiple gas fireplaces add comfort and ambiancethroughout the home. Many of the home's original details remain intact, including the weighted windows--all fully operational--and the original front door and hardware, preserving the craftsmanship of a bygone era. Behind the walls, the home benefits from all-new plumbing and electrical systems installed during the 2014 renovation, as well as an encapsulated crawlspace with dehumidification and ventilation. The private backyard features a pool, low-maintenance turf, and thoughtfully designed gathering spaces ideal for entertaining and everyday enjoyment. The driveway was recently updated and comfortably accommodates three vehicles. A rare and remarkable feature, a sapling propagated from the famed Angel Oak on Johns Island graces the front yard, carrying forward one of the Lowcountry's most treasured natural legacies. Crowning the home is an extraordinary metal roof, a testament to enduring craftsmanship. Recently serviced and in pristine condition, the roof includes a transferable warranty, offering both character and confidence for years to come. Ideally situated just one block from Hampton Park--Downtown Charleston's largest and most beloved green space--you'll enjoy immediate access to year-round festivals, Spoleto events, concerts, oyster roasts, farmers markets, and some of the area's best restaurants, including Lillian's, Berkeley's, Park & Grove, Renzo, and Moe's Crosstown. Baseball games at Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park and football Saturdays at The Citadel are also just a short stroll from your front door. This is a rare opportunity to own a home featured on the National Register of Historic Places where original architectural details, modern infrastructure, and timeless design exist in perfect harmony.
