This home has only been owned by a few families. Situated three houses off of Rockford Park on an oversized lot on one of the most private streets in the Highlands. Just steps away in the park you will find abundant recreational activities including running and walking trails, basketball courts, baseball fields, and tennis courts. At a little over a third of an acre the lot is larger than most in the city. From the moment you walk in the front door you will feel the grandeur and stature of this beautiful and magnificent property. The foyer, the moldings, and the spacious yet comfortable rooms are some of the many elements that give this stately home character. Not many homes can carry the exterior architectural appeal into the interior as well as this home does. The main staircase is large and grand as it climbs gracefully to the third floor. Large and elegant white columned verandas on the first and second floor grace one side of the house, bringing the Southern charm of Charleston to the beautiful scenery of Rockford Park. Several fireplaces throughout the house bring an extra touch of warmth to the rooms. Buyers keen on renovating will find that the beautiful original architecture and moldings will serve as a strong foundation for any further improvements. Included in the lower level of the home is a 3 to 4 car tandem garage and large basement with full bathroom ready for finishing into a multipurpose area. This flexible space could include today’s desirable features such as a mudroom, dog wash station, recreation room, and/or a wine cellar. This home is just waiting for someone to truly love its architectural ambience. Adding modern amenities will never be easier, because of the large scale of the home.
