About This Home
As of July 2019Welcome to 1838 Elsey Drive! This wonderful half-acre lot includes two separate residences-a 2 bedroom main house and one bedroom guest house. The two bedroom, one bath, 1,500 sq.ft. main house has undergone significant renovations. The functional kitchen was upgraded to include all new cabinetry, stainless appliances (Bosch Gas Range, Microwave and Dishwasher; Whirlpool Refrigerator), and subway tile backsplash. Through the front door is the cozy family room with large picture window. The family room is open to an oversized flex room which boasts a stunning fireplace with hearth that runs the length of the home. The room has outside access to the back yard, and could easily be used as media room or office, or converted into a 3rd bedroom. Off the family room is the hallway which leads tothe two bedrooms and renovated full bath. A huge combination laundry and mudroom is conveniently located off the kitchen and is accessible from the driveway by a side door.
Towards the back of the half acre lot is the second residence, a one-bedroom, one-bath, 474 sq.ft. home - a perfect guest house or opportunity for rental income. The home has a combination living/dining area, kitchen, bedroom and full bath.
The neighborhood has NO HOA and this oversized lot offers tons of possibilities! The location is convenient to stores and restaurants, and is only 10 minutes to both Downtown Charleston and the Charleston Airport, and 20 minutes to local beaches. Call today to schedule your personal tour!
