About This Home
As of August 2016Historic grandeur on Sullivan's Island! Sophisticated renovation of a landmark island home, located steps from the desirable stretch of beach at Station 18, on prestigious I'On Avenue. This grand mansion boasts architectural details and stunning interiors that reflect a bygone era; from the sweeping porches that envelope the home like petticoats, to the magnificent 12 foot tin embossed ceilings, crown moldings, five fireplaces, and vintage 9 foot antique glass French doors, this is a residence that offers the quintessential historic aesthetic to the discerning individual. Built in 1894, the Officer's Quarters commanded an important position for providing elegant residences for the military elite during the Spanish American War. Today, I'On Avenue is lined by majestic oaks, providingan idyllic and private setting for this spectacular home. Under the stewardship of a West coast designer and Charleston builder, the 18 month restoration aimed to protect the rich history of the home, while infusing a modern and chic style that embraced the beauty and cultural lifestyle of the Low Country. The luxe accomodations, offer stunning interiors, high-lighted by dramatic ceiling heights, sliding eight panel doors, custom art lighting and couture chandeliers, and Sullivan's white plaster walls and accented millwork in fired earth black, and muted greys. Floor to ceiling bookcases line the wall of the grand living room with gleaming original pine floors throughout the home. The front room features three sets of French doors, opening to the large veranda and front gardens. A media room with fireplace and bookcases sits adjacent to the conservatory. One of the three original sunrooms in the home, the conservatory is clad in walls of windows, providing a sublime location for a dining area. There is even a butler's pass through window for serving from the kitchen. The stunning kitchen, with ten foot Calacutta marble island and counters, copper apron sink, ship-lap clad walls, Viking and Subzero appliances, and stainless shelving, provide the perfect setting for the most demanding epicurean. A butler's pantry with 5 foot long apron sink, second fridge, and one of the two sets of washers/dryers, provides access to the pool. The exquisite stair case and embossed ceilings continue throughout the second story with a grand hallway leading to four spacious bedrooms and three renovated baths. French doors lead to a second floor veranda spanning the length of the home, where you can see the lighthouse and look over the lush tropical landscape. The master bath is a retreat of Carerra marble sinks, floor to ceiling glass and marble shower, and an English soaking tub. A fireplace completes the romantic ambiance. A second exterior staircase leads to the fourth bedroom and new marble bath; an excellent option for a nanny's quarters. The third floor has been finished to provide a contemporary guest suite, with vaulted ceilings, open beams, private bath, and additional laundry facility. The home's exterior has been extensively restored to its former glory with Benjamin Moore paint, a complete galvanized roof replacement and slate shingle repairs, new copper downspouts and railing caps, spray foam insulation, lighting, irrigation, and professional landscaping by Ampersand Gardens. Mahogany shutters were built to historic specifications and clad the front veranda's French doors and windows. The back yard offers an oasis for the buyer looking for a vacation setting featuring a large pool framed by the spacious, outdoor living cabana, wet bar, shade trellis, and huge outdoor brick fireplace. The quiet, alley entrance to the site, boasts a large detached two car garage with loft storage, electric garage doors, and golf-cart carport. This property is the only historic residence of this generous square footage to enjoy this extensive combination of amenities; under current building ordinances, they cannot be replicated in any new construction project. Masterfully executed, the dichotomy between the modern and the classic details of this home is truly extraordinary, and the opportunity to own a piece of restored American history like this is extremely rare.
