Property Description
Surrounded by an early 19th-century wall, the Victorian-era house at 14 New Street dates to 1872 and is nestled on a double lot, holding extensive gardens, including antique roses and a towering date palm that rustles in the breeze. Built by architect Louis Barbot, who would go on to become city engineer for Charleston, the home was the southernmost dwelling rebuilt on New Street after the war. The façade offers a two-story bay window behind the wrought iron fence and gate. Double piazzas, 12-foot ceilings and a tall staircase give the home a gracious feel, providing ample living space and options for entertaining. Multiple French doors offer access to both piazzas. With heart pine floors throughout, the home has four bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a study.
