The home's location places you in the center of downtown, within walking distance of the Ashley River, Hampton Park, and popularlocal restaurants.A spacious and inviting covered front porch offers views of the marsh and provides a great place to welcome guests while enjoying a cool drink, a meal al fresco or a riverfront breeze. Upon entering the home, you'll notice the exquisite attention to detail with wainscoting, crown molding, hardwood floors, recessed lighting, surround sound and more throughout the home.
