About This Home
As of April 202179A Ashley Avenue offers a wonderful location for full time living or getaways to the South's most heralded city. Located in charming Harleston Village, just a half block from Colonial Lake, this home is the perfect blend of historic charm, modern convenience and a central location in the heart Charelston. This magnificent 1842 residence -The Daniel Fairchild House - was completely restored and remodeled to create three private residences in a wonderfully historic setting. The large corner homesite is framed by a wrought iron fence containing a landscaped courtyard and fountain. Upon entering from the spacious porch of this Charleston Single, you are greeted by generous 10 foot ceilings, gorgeous heart of pine floors, and historical details in the natural light-filled living room.The original cornice molding and trim work have been masterfully restored throughout the home. Through the main corridor you will discover an elegant formal dining room. This room is appointed with built-in bookshelves and wine storage, and just steps from the thoughtfully designed kitchen. Punctuating the rustic exposed brick, you'll find custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless appliances within this charming space. Steps away, the owners suite features more exposed brick above the fireplace, along with the master bathroom featuring a marble double vanity and a custom walk-in shower. Tucked away on the second level, via the grand staircase, your guests will enjoy their own private suite and full bathroom -a perfect reprieve from a busy day in Charleston. Enjoy quiet mornings or lazy afternoons on the downstairs piazza overlooking the side yard with a bubbling fountain and garden. Take a walk around Colonial Lake - only a half block away - or meander over to The City Marina and admire the yacht community of our city.
Daniel Fairchild was a brick and lumber merchant who built this as his personal home with great care and detail. The walls are double-brick (approx 6") thick and the original earthquake bolts remain in place.
The home is easy walking distance to your favorite coffee bar, cafe's and shops of downtown, the City Marina and the historic Charleston Battery. This Harleston Village two bedroom, two and a half bath home, with over 2000 square feet of indoor living space and a sprawling front porch, is truly in the heart of it all. The Charleston lifestyle at your door step, and its historic charm, 79A Ashley Avenue has everything you desire in your next Charleston home.
