Welcome to 2 Colonial Street, a FitzSimons townhouse that marries the exciting culture, events and dining in downtown Charleston with the luxury of living on a quiet neighborhood street located walking distance to schools, parks, tennis courts, Colonial Lake, Moultrie Park, and the Ashley River! This townhome, completely renovated in 1999 and meticulously maintained, features a kitchen with granite countertops, a travertine backsplash, a Dacor gas stove and a Bosch dishwasher. Adjacent to the kitchen is a beautiful dining room with custom built-ins that opens to a living room featuring a regal fireplace and plenty of windows allowing natural light to show off the home's upscale finishings. Next to this room is a well-appointed study/flexspace that has its own bath and could double as aguest bedroom as well. Upstairs, in addition to the spacious master suite, are two lovely secondary bedrooms, a hallway bathroom, and a laundry room. An entertainer's delight, this home has one of the most stunning courtyards in town, featuring lush tropical landscaping and a garden gate crafted by artisan ironworker Philip Simmons. The private courtyard has plenty of room for al fresco dining or hosting a large party. Much sought after downtown parking is not an issue here, as the home has a private driveway and there is plenty of off-street parking as well. The home is on high ground with affordable flood insurance. This residence is perfect for a primary residence or a secondary Charleston getaway, and has no HOA.
