Come see this extensively renovated, single-story home located in the highly sought Sandhurst neighborhood. The home is located less than 15 minutes from all the amenities of downtown Charleston. Generous sized corner lot (0.32 acre) with a fenced rear yard that includes a large storage shed. The lot is high ground. ** Flood insurance is NOT required **. Also, there are no HOA dues for Sandhurst. Attractive all-brick exterior. Most exterior elements have been recently repainted (doors, trim, shutters), new door hardware installed for the front door, and new exterior light fixtures have been installed at the front of the house. Abundant natural light throughout the interior of the home. The entire interior of the home has been recently repainted.The interior living areas and bedrooms have hardwood floors throughout (no carpet). The current owners extended the hardwood floors into the kitchen and eat-in area and refinished all pre-existing hardwoods to match. Previous wall paneling in the eat-in area was replaced with sheetrock. The master bedroom is larger than you would expect for a 1960s ranch house. The master bath has been recently updated, including a walk-in shower (subway tile and frameless glass), a new vanity with quartz countertop, and new floor tile. The kitchen features reconfigured cabinets (including new cabinet doors and new cabinet trim), a new freestanding hood vent, granite countertops (including a newly added extension with counter seating) and recently installed backsplash tile. The current owners reconfigured the transition from the eat-in area to the hallway for the bedrooms, including the installation of new French doors. The full hall bath, which includes an enlarged closet, was recently updated with a new tub, new wall tile, new floor tile, a new backsplash and new fixtures. The present owners converted the formal dining area into a library with built-in shelving, but this space could easily be converted back into a formal dining area if desired. There are new light fixtures in the eat-in area and the library area. A prior owner converted the garage area into a large 4th bedroom with a fireplace and its own bathroom this space can alternatively be used as a den, office, playroom or exercise room. There is a separate laundry room, updated with new flooring and shiplap wall covering, that also features additional storage space. The roof was replaced (2013) by a prior owner. HVAC equipment elements have been replaced in recent years (2015 and 2020). The water heater is also relatively new (2018). Sandhurst residents have lottery priority for Orange Grove Charter School (K-8), which is located within the Sandhurst neighborhood. Buyer to verify schools, including whether or not there is eligibility/availability at Orange Grove Charter.
