Property Description

Welcome home to this beautifully updated Charleston bungalow, where classic character meets modern convenience in one of West Ashley's most desirable locations. Less than two miles from historic downtown and just minutes from the restaurants, boutiques, breweries, and parks of Avondale, you'll enjoy easy access to everything Charleston has to offer with the rare bonus of a private one-third-acre lot. Completely reimagined in 2020, this home was renovated from the studs out and has been meticulously maintained, with a new roof added in May 2025. Warm hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and inviting living spaces create a home that feels both comfortable and timeless.The kitchen is designed for everyday living and entertaining, featuring stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetspace, a large center island, and an adjoining dining area. The family room is filled with sunlight, making it the perfect place to gather with family and friends. The main-level primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a beautifully updated bathroom featuring a tiled walk-in shower and dual vanities. Upstairs, an additional bedroom and expansive bonus room provide endless flexibility for guests, a home office, media room, playroom, or fitness space. Step outside and you'll quickly appreciate what truly sets this property apart. The spacious one-third-acre lot offers exceptional privacy, mature natural surroundings, and room to grow. Whether you envision adding an accessory dwelling unit, detached garage, or expanding the home in the future (buyer to verify), the possibilities are rare this close to downtown. A brick patio just off the kitchen creates the perfect spot for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or relaxing at the end of the day. Being offered fully furnished, this move-in-ready home is equally suited as a primary residence, second home, or investment opportunity.
