About This Home
Located on the 5th floor of the infamous Fort Sumter House this 1 bedroom 1 bath condo has a very usable balcony overlooking the Ashley River and its beautiful sunsets, rooftops and church steeples of Downtown Charleston. The Fort Sumter House was built in 1923 and sits in one of the most premier locations in Charleston. Overlooking White Point Gardens which was laid out with pathways sheltered by beautiful live oaks and complete with a gazebo where many a wedding has been performed at the famous Battery of Charleston. The building was originally built as a hotel featuring a waterfront restaurant and grand ballroom where many a Charleston wedding reception was held, including this agent's 2 aunts back in the '60's. In the late '70's it was redeveloped as luxury condominiums.This condo is in need of a complete renovation. It's someone's chance to turn this into a premier home again in a location you can't replicate. The building has undergone major renovation in the last few years and is set to retain its historic place as one of the most important addresses in Charleston.
