This is a great opportunity to purchase a piece of historic downtown Charleston. The property is full of potential and has three seperate buildings. One is a 4 BR/2 BA single family with incredible detail on the inside as well as beautiful hard wood floors that were refinished four years ago. The second building is currently a womens hat shop with roughly 2000 sq. ft. making an excellent retail space or art gallery. The third building is currently a storage building, however, it is could be converted to an apartment to maximize cashflow. This is definately a one of a kind property on the Peninsula!
