Charleston, SC 29403
Tucked away down a private drive, this 2700 sq ft home was built in 2002 and completely renovated within the past 2 years. This home represents the best of both worlds: enjoy the low maintenance of newer construction while living in the heart of one of Charleston's most sought-after historic neighborhoods.
The current owners have completed a beautiful renovation of the home, with incredible attention to detail and bespoke finishes. An elegant custom Indiana limestone staircase ascends to the entry porch and foyer. Once you enter the home, you notice the gorgeous 200 year old reclaimed heart pine floors and abundance of natural light. The living room is bright and open, with custom bar cabinetry near the dining area. The house lives large with the delightful spacious screened porch through double french doors off the living and dining area. The screened porch has a fan and heaters, so you truly can use this outdoor room year round. Off the screened porch is a slate covered patio for grilling area, with new quartz topped counter and sink. There is a retractable awning to cover the patio.
The renovated double galley kitchen is a chef's dream with Wolf range with custom copper hood, Wolf convection-steam oven, Cove dishwasher, Subzero refrigerator/freezer, Shaw's of England porcelain farm sink, brass fixtures, and plenty of prep space on the marble countertops. Black walnut floating shelves look terrific anchored on the handmade fire clay tile backsplash. Custom cabinetry with detailed interior dividers and custom pantry provide tons of storage and are very functional.
Newly redesigned guest suite on the first floor features a wall of built-ins that incorporates a desk plus a queen size murphy bed with bedside niches with lighting and electricity. The ensuite bathroom has an 1820s English imperial antique vanity with original marble countertop. Shower marble flooring and unique basketweave noir dolomite marble accent wall.
Also on the first floor is a new office with custom cabinetry, vintage bowling alley desktop, and tons of storage. A powder bath with Italian carrara marble on the walls and gorgeous grasscloth wallpaper completes the first floor living space.
On the second floor is the primary suite, with newly renovated showstopper bathroom. There is a generous wet room with Victoria & Albert cast-iron freestanding soaking tub and amazing large shower with multiple shower heads. Dual vanities with marble waterfall countertops, dolomite marble flooring and separate water closet make this feel like a luxury spa. There are multiple large closets in the primary suite, plus additional closet storage in the second floor hall across from the laundry (with retractable doors).
Another guest suite is on the second floor, with newly added accent wall paneling with bedside lighting. The gorgeous en suite bathroom has carrara marble and frameless shower.
The extra bonus is the ground level of this home, which is currently configured as a gym and a "game" room, both heated and cooled. The very cool whiskey barrel sliding doors and accents warm up this charming space. There is a ton of cleverly disguised storage on this level, plus a 2 car garage! Please see complete list of Improvements under Documents.
There is off-street parking for 4+ cars, plus beautiful mature plantings in the small garden. This location is so convenient to everything downtown! You are a quick walk to Marion Square with the farmer's market and other seasonal events, plus quick stroll to vibrant King Street with shopping and restaurants.
