Welcome to 28 Hanover Street, a historic Charleston Single that underwent a complete modern renovation in 2015. Located on a south facing corner in one of Downtown's hottest neighborhoods, this home checks all the boxes. A short walk takes you to the shopping, dining, and nightlife of Upper King Street. You can stay even closer to home and enjoy the growing number of neighborhood hangouts like the Cigar Factory for a different pace. Convenient access to the highways and interstate make coming and going from the City a breeze. As you approach the home, you will find a charming gated courtyard that leads up to the front door and double piazzas. To the rear of the property, rare gated parking for two vehicles offers a private entrance.Inside this stunning modern redesign provides an excellent flow for living and entertaining. On the first floor, you will find a foyer, formal living room, formal dining room, powder room and a stunning, large eat-in kitchen overlooking the den. Moving up to the second floor, you will find three nice sized bedrooms and three bathrooms. A tankless, on-demand water heater means that no one needs to wait for a shower or hot water. Gas heat means you won't have to worry during those rare cold nights. This home is an excellent example of historic Charleston meets modern style and design. Don't miss this unique opportunity.

This 1852 home has an effective age of 2015. A complete renovation of whole building-wiring, plumbing, central H/A, new insulation, and structure all redone. Two Charleston singles put together in a 90 degree angle give a great floor plan, and is as polished as if it was just built. Original heart pine floors and nine-over-nine windows blend with an updated interior. Open, comfortable first floor plan, unusual in a downtown property. The kitchen, dining and living rooms flow together through a series of arches. There is a half bath off the family room. Each of three bedrooms has its own bath with very nice finishes. The double piazza overlooks a small garden. There is off street parking behind a wrought iron gate. Buyer should verify all information presented.CTG on financing, inspection.
