Overview

This elegant, light filled, solid brick, three story Greek Revival home with double piazzas underwent a thorough high level restoration under previous ownership. The thoughtful modern re-design of the classic 1840 Charleston Single House incorporates a chic, sophisticated style that highlights the property's timeless original Greek Revival architectural features. These include an elegant center hall with a striking staircase which curves up the three stories, impressively sized original heart pine doors, plaster ceiling medallions, beautifully encased large windows many of which retain the original glass, and well preserved heart pine floors. The modern new design cleverly commingles the remarkable interior spaces with a series of masterfully designed outdoor gardens that surround...the house. From inside the house, you feel entirely connected to the outside. The series of black metal floor-to-ceiling glass French doors gracefully provide access from the garden spaces to the primary living spaces. Atlantic sea breezes continually cross the Charleston peninsula. The classic and modern design allows for year round indoor and outdoor entertaining. The property consists of two 1840's structures, a main house and a cook's house that are connected by a a glassy, heavenly ""hyphen."" Combined, the property offers three bedrooms and two and a half baths in the main house and one separate guest room with ensuite bathroom. Based on recent guest history, the guest's quarters are so charming that the guests find it hard to leave their airy, private quarters surrounded by great garden views on all sides. The sunny south facing garden is full of mature flowering and fruits bearing plants, cascading vines, a well patinated water fountain, a sleek fire pit, an elaborate outdoor grill, a putting green, a two car driveway with an automated wrought iron gate, and a classic potting shed. The house is situated on some of Charleston's highest ground.
