Located in a prime Downtown location, this well-maintained duplex (could easily be converted back to Charleston Single) offers multiple uses and a great rental history and is available for purchase as a duplex or individual units. Built in 1852, this Charleston single has been converted into two separate single level units that have been updated to provide the comfort and conveniences of a modern home while maintaining its historic charm and integrity. The lower unit had just finished an interior renovation and that would be a possibility for the upstairs unit. Each 2 bed/1 bath unit boasts original heart pine floors throughout, tons of natural light, great flowing floor plans, in-unit laundry and private covered porches for enjoying the Lowcountry weather and afternoon seabreeze. Thehome just received a fresh exterior paint and includes a large private driveway behind a custom Charleston iron gate with dedicated off-street parking. Located directly across the street from the fabulous Tiedemann Park that is gorgeously maintained by the Charleston Park Angels. Blocks away from Marion Square which hosts seasonal festivals such as SEWE, Charleston Wine & Food as well as the weekly Charleston Farmers Market and within walking distance to upper King St, the Gaillard Center and fabulous shopping, dining and entertainment, this lock-and-leave property is downtown living at its finest!
BEAUTIFULLY RENOVATED DUPLEX ACROSS FROM TIEDEMANN PARK IN WRAGGBOROUGH. EACH UNIT HAS IT'S OWN PIAZZA AND THERE'S A LARGE SHARED GARDEN IN THE REAR. OPEN FLOOR PLAN WITH ORIGINAL HEART PINE FLOORS. ALTHOUGH BOTH UNITS ARE RENTED, ONE IS SUBJECT TO A 60 DAY KICK-OUT SHOULD THE PROPERTY SELL. IF SQUARE FOOTAGE IS IMPORTANT, PLEASE MEASURE.
