Be the first to live in this pristine home after a masterful, down to the studs renovation.The property is located on one of Charleston's highest elevations. No flood insurance required. Abundant windows, heart pine floors, soaring ceilings, and an open floor plan define the space. The interior spaces include four bedrooms, three and a half baths, a living room, a dining room, a pantry, a mud room and and an eat-in kitchen. The thoughtful re-design of this cheery historic gem offers a sophisticated style that seamlessly blends the original architectural features with a modern design for comfortable living. Every room is directly connected to the lush outside environment and to the south facing Charleston garden.There are breathtaking views of: the grand circa 1811 Second Presbyterian Church; the circa 1859 New Tabernacle Baptist Church; and the delightful triangular shaped Chapel Street Pocket Park. Cascading water from the massive cast iron fountain in the center of the beautifully planted park can be heard from the front porch. Walk everywhere: two blocks to the restaurants and shops on King Street; two blocks to Calhoun Street and the Galliard Auditorium; two blocks to Meeting Street, the Dewberry Hotel and the Farmers Market. The design team for this Chapel Street renovation included Sebastian von Marschall, Architect, Sheila Wertimer, Landscape Designer, and Harrison Malpass, Restoration Contractor.
The renovation included new framing, a footprint expansion and entirely new wiring, plumbing, insulation, gutters, custom cabinetry, and HVAC as well as all new appliances, lighting fixtures, plumbing fixtures, and exterior working shutters. All of the interior trim work in the house is new and all of the surfaces on both the interior and exterior were restored and repainted.
