Tucked into the heart of historic Charleston's Wraggborough neighborhood, 6 Judith Street is a masterfully reimagined Charleston Single that blends formal sophistication with effortless Lowcountry charm. This one-of-a-kind estate spans the centuries, honoring its architectural heritage while delivering the luxuries of today. The home was built from 1817-1820 by John Robinson, builder of the nearby famed Aiken-Rhett House, and the recent restoration and renovation work received a pro-merito Carolopolis award from the Preservation Society.Step through the iconic side-entry piazza and find yourself in a home where craftsmanship reigns: original wood floors and wainscot, exposed beam ceilings, and antique fireplaces create warmth and soul in every room. The formal living and dining rooms set the tone for refined entertaining, while a spacious wet bar with stone countertops off the dining room makes hosting a breeze. The kitchen is a dream, flooded with natural light from oversized windows, framed by rustic beams and accented by a charming breakfast nook. It opens seamlessly to the outdoors, inviting the garden in and turning every meal into a moment. A guest suite off the kitchen offers its own private bathroom and sitting room. The primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, generously sized and full of natural light. A spacious walk-in closet provides ample built-in storage, making everyday living feel effortlessly organized. The ensuite bathroom is sleek and sophisticated, featuring a double vanity, fully tiled walls, a deep soaking tub, and a frameless glass shower with a ceiling-mounted rainfall fixture, designed for both style and function. Upstairs, two additional bonus rooms offer flexibility as bedrooms, studios, or private lounges. And just beneath the main house, a hidden gem: a private separately metered ground level home office with its own kitchen and full bath, ideal for quiet work-from-home days or guest overflow as an apartment. Outside, the magic continues into the professionally designed garden- a private oasis, with curated landscaping that weaves color, texture, and serenity around every corner. Complemented by a saltwater pool framed by lush greenery, the garden provides the ultimate escape while the gated driveway also provides parking for two cars on its high lot with no flood history. A fully equipped carriage house completes the property, featuring its own kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom. This space is perfect for guests, extended family, pool house or rental potential.
