Property Description

Step into the timeless charm of this beautifully restored 1922 Craftsman home in the heart of Carolina Place. Blending historic character with modern updates, this thoughtfully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers the best of both worlds. From the moment you arrive, the inviting vaulted front porch sets the tone for what awaits inside. Original character abounds with stunning hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, exposed beams, and abundant natural light throughout. The spacious living room flows seamlessly into the dining area, where a fireplace serves as a focal point and gathering space. The kitchen has been meticulously updated with soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a built-in microwave and refrigerator, a generous pantry, and eye-catching exposed brick surrounding the oven. Every detail was carefully selected to complement the home's historic appeal while providing the conveniences today's buyers expect.

Two additional bedrooms and an updated guest bath provide comfortable accommodations for family, guests, or a home office.
