This an excellent opportunity to own a historic Charleston home at a great price without the maintenance surprises! This beautiful home, located in the heart of Charleston's Old Historic District, is within walking distance from Charleston Day School and is 2 blocks from lower King Street. The home is currently undergoing an extensive, "studs out," renovation (scheduled to be completed February 1, 2012) with a newly reinforced foundation, reinforced structural framing, plumbing, electrical, mechanical, and gas systems. The home also features a new, 1200 square foot addition, with a wraparound porch and large master deck area looking out to the steeple of St. Johns Lutheran Church and the Charleston skyline. The house consists of three bedrooms, three private full bathrooms and one half bath. And there is no need to worry about closet space; the master closet is big enough to be its own bedroom. The kitchen/living area features a vent-less gas fireplace, island, and a spacious family room with ample room for relaxing/entertaining. The kitchen will also come equipped with a new GE stainless steel appliance package with a gas range. The lot itself allows for a large driveway along the side of the home and a spacious outdoor patio off of the back porch. At this point in the construction there is an opportunity to pick out your own finishes (Granite, Tile, Flooring, Lights, Hardware, Appliances, Trim, and Color). The seller is open to the idea of providing an allowance for each package and including that into the sales price as a turn-key custom home option.
