    What's special

    Like NEW, this historic Charleston home has been thoughtfully renovated to maintain its charm and character while giving the conveniences of modern construction. This 4 bedroom, 2 bath home is situated on a quiet street just two blocks from the 60 acre Hampton Park, The Citadel, Johnson Hagood Stadium, Charleston RiverDogs stadium, Jack Adams Tennis Center, and trendy bars/restaurants like Harold's Cabin, Leon's, and Purlieu. No expense was spared in the 2016 renovation: a fully renovated kitchen, new bathrooms, new windows and doors, new cement plank siding, new insulation in the floors and walls and attic, new electrical and plumbing, a new roof, and two new HVAC's. Double front porches provide gracious outdoor living options or... enjoy the rear deck with a fenced and private courtyard! During the renovation the kitchen was expanded to provide a larger, modern kitchen with new white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless appliances, and recessed and pendant lighting to keep this space bright. Gorgeous wooden beams, reclaimed wood floors, and a dual brick fireplace leave an impression in this living area, reflecting character from this circa 1930 home! A spacious downstairs bedroom boasts wood floors and a full bath with a slate-tile floor and frameless shower. Follow the beautiful wood tread upstairs where you'll find more refinished wood floors throughout. There are 3 upstairs bedrooms with hall access to the covered 2nd-floor front porch and a well-appointed bathroom with a fully tiled walk-in shower. There is plenty of off-street parking in this gated driveway and a repurposed cargo container for a golf cart, bikes, etc. Lush yet low maintenance landscape. You won't find a better house or location in this price range!
