Stroll one block from Welton's Tiny Bakeshop to your stone walkway, framed by a brick lined lawn and iconic double front porches. Inside, the first floor welcomes you with soaring 11-foot ceilings that enhance the home's stately presence. Original details abound, including diamond windows, beadboard hallway trim, picture-frame molding in the formal living and dining rooms, and multiple original fireplaces--each thoughtfully preserved. The heart of the home lies at the rear, where a spacious kitchen, living, and eat-in dining area seamlessly come together. Expansive glass French doors open directly to thepool and cabana, creating effortless indoor-outdoor living and making this space ideal for both everyday life and entertaining. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms with 9-foot ceilings, three full baths, additional original fireplaces, and private porches off two of the bedrooms. The serene primary suite, located at the back of the home, features a walk-in closet with custom built-ins, private porch access, and an ensuite bath with a large double vanity and marble shower. The backyard has been thoughtfully designed as a private resort-like retreat. At its center is a beautifully finished pool, wrapped in lush tropical landscaping and elegant marble decking provides ample space for lounging, dining, and entertaining. An open-air cabana anchors the space and extends the home's living area outdoors. Featuring a wood-burning fireplace, the cabana is ideal for gathering in every season, whether enjoying warm summer evenings poolside or cozy fall nights by the fire. Low-maintenance turf between the pool and cabana ensures effortless upkeep while maintaining a polished aesthetic. A discreet half bath just off the back porch adds everyday convenience, keeping wet feet and pool traffic out of the main house. Together, the pool, cabana, and surrounding grounds create an exceptional outdoor living environment-perfect for quiet mornings, lively entertaining, and long Charleston summer days. A rare blend of historic charm, modern comfort, and an unbeatable downtown location- this is Charleston living at its finest.
