Charming I'On family home located on a quiet tree lined street of Ponsbury with beautiful views of East Lake.

I'on is one of the most popular neighborhoods in the Charleston area and this home has easy access to all of its great amenities. This traditional frame home has tremendous curb appeal, large porches well shaded in the afternoons and a landscaped private backyard with a mature living fence draped with Confederate Jasmine that blooms every spring.The first floor features a music room, an open air family and dining combination room, a kitchen and breakfast area with views of the lake, and a spacious laundry room. There are cherry hardwood floors through the home, which were re-finished in 2017, and 9 ft plus ceilings allowing the capture of plenty of natural light throughout most of the day. The upstairs is highlighted by a large master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom with his/hers sinks, walk-in shower, and walk-in closet. A spacious hardwood landing greets you at the top of the stairs that may be used as a second entertainment area, office area, or a workout space. The upstairs is topped off with 2 bedrooms, one of which has amazing views of East Lake, and which share a common bathroom. A new Trane HVAC was installed in 2017. The attic is suitable for a build out into a second bedroom or game room.
