Property Description
Nestled on 1.7 private acres and conveniently located just two miles from both the Ashley River Bridge and I-26 at Cosgrove Avenue, this exceptional property offers a rare combination of space, privacy, and timeless character. Beautiful wrought-iron gates greet you as you enter into an oasis, a world unto itself. Built in 1934, the estate includes a 3,580-square-foot main residence and a separate 1,180-square-foot carriage house. The main house features four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, including a spacious primary suite with a clawfoot soaking tub, heated floors, and a large walk-in closet. Original hardwood floors run throughout much of the home, while heated tile floors enhance the kitchen, sunroom, and primary bath. Designed for both everyday living and gracious entertaining,the kitchen is truly a cook's dream. It features a Viking range, abundant granite countertops, a coffered ceiling, generous space for a large dining table, and a comfortable sitting area that opens to a covered porch, pergola, pool and lush gardens beyond. French doors and numerous windows fill the home with natural light. A large butler's pantry and laundry room provide exceptional storage and functionality. Just beyond the foyer are a gracious dining room and living room, each with a working fireplace--one gas and one wood-burning--creating warm and inviting spaces for gatherings with family and friends. The gardens, featured in Charleston Magazine, are a true highlight of the property. Designed as a series of enchanting garden rooms, they offer beauty, privacy, and ample space to relax, entertain, or play. The detached two-car garage and carriage house include an elevator leading to spacious guest quarters. Complete with a living area, full kitchen, balcony and private bedroom, this is the perfect space for a home office or visiting family and friends. Timeless architectural details throughout, this property is a rare find just minutes from downtown Charleston and a rare opportunity to own a distinctive property that combines historic charm, modern comforts, and one of the area's most beautiful garden settings.
