About This Home
As of July 2015Located on a lovely block in Harleston Village, this beautifully renovated Charleston single house has a large, enchanting rear garden. From the warm heart pine floors in wonderful condition to the bead-board paneling in the stairwell, this home has a simple, understated charm. There are three fireplaces, in the living room, the dining room and one bedroom. The chef's kitchen features light cherry cabinets, corian counters, center island for barstools, stainless steel Thermador gas range, Dacor hood, Bosch dishwasher, undermount sink. Both baths were renovated with designer tile. The tax assessor's records indicate year built as 1905. However, neighboring homes are listed as 1898 and some historic maps seem to date the home as pre-1901. Please click to read additional remarks.A fairly recently constructed out-building is perfect for a workshop or garden shed, offers great storage for bikes and kayaks to enjoy Charleston's great outdoors. The large back yard was once professionally landscaped for low-maintenance enjoyment. Enjoy blooms and fresh fruit while meandering the pebble walkways. The location is perfect for a stroll around Colonial Lake, which is undergoing a total transformation and will soon become the jewel of downtown, just like Central Park in New York City. It is just a block away. Play tennis on city courts just two blocks away or shop and dine on King Street just a short six block walk. The city marina is also close by. Lender paid closings costs of 0.50% of the loan amount, redeemable only at the time of closing when financing is completed by the seller's preferred lender. Closing costs credit must be mentioned at application and may only be applied to offset actual costs. *for a Jumbo loan amount (over $417,000) the credit is 0.375%
