Calling all investors! This is a fantastic opportunity to turn this former church fellowship hall into a remarkable home. With some vision and updating, this property has the potential to be a stunning residential space. The second-floor upstairs event space will need to be converted back to the primary bedroom and full bathroom (or even 2 bedrooms). 16 Amherst is conveniently located just minutes from The College of Charleston and the Medical University of SC. It's also only 2 blocks from Trident Tech's Palmer Campus, several community green spaces and pocket parks, restaurants, historical sites and much, much more. Let your creativity run wild and transform this blank canvas into your dream home. Don't miss out on this handyman special - seize this opportunity today!
