Property Description

An extraordinary offering in the heart of historic Ansonborough -- where Charleston's past is not only preserved, but beautifully reimagined.Constructed in 1840 by Henry Street in the years following the Great Fire, this rare double-front Greek Revival residence stands as a lasting expression of resilience, craftsmanship, and architectural significance. Its stately masonry facade and iconic piazzas set the tone before you ever step inside -- a quiet reminder that this is something far beyond the expected.Inside, the home unfolds with intention. Grand double parlors, rich in detail and proportion, create a sense of understated elegance -- where historic character is honored and thoughtfully layered with modern refinement. Every space feels curated yet livable, designed to...accommodate both intimate moments and elevated entertaining with ease. At the center of the home, a chef's kitchen of exceptional caliber anchors daily living -- seamlessly blending performance, design, and gathering. Throughout, the residence offers a level of scale and flexibility rarely found downtown, with multiple living areas, private quarters, and opportunities for multi-generational living or discreet guest accommodations. Beyond the interiors, a private courtyard retreat introduces an entirely different rhythm -- complete with a saltwater pool, outdoor kitchen, and thoughtfully designed gathering spaces that feel worlds away while remaining in the heart of the city. Positioned just steps from Charleston's most celebrated dining, cultural landmarks, and waterfront views, this is a residence defined not by square footage, but by lifestyle -- walkable, storied, and deeply rooted in place. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Charleston history, reimagined for today.
