With permission for monthly furnished executive rentals projected at $5,000 per month, two deeded off-street parking spaces, a private entry, and semi-private outdoor living, the home functions beautifully as a low-maintenance primary residence, an elevated pied-à-terre, or a high-performing investment opportunity. Every inch of this residence was intentionally crafted for elevated living, melding premium craftsmanship, designer finishes, and thoughtful spatial flow. At the heart of the home, a bespoke kitchen by 1951 Cabinetry features handcrafted custom cabinets extending to the ceiling, quartzite countertops, and a $25,000 suite of GE Café appliances, including gas range, bar refrigerator, and built-in microwave. Glass-front uppers, under-cabinet lighting, and a dedicated bar and coffee station add both warmth and functionality. The split-bedroom layout ensures privacy, with each suite offering an en suite bath finished in floor-to-ceiling Italian marble, frameless glass showers, and Delta Champagne Bronze fixtures. The primary suite is elevated by a custom walk-in closet system with frosted glass doors and built-in cabinetry, offering a seamless, tailored aesthetic. Throughout the home, refinished hardwood floors (including new living room floors to match the original), designer fixtures (worth over $25,000), and designer lighting in the den create an atmosphere of understated luxury. Every switch is fitted with a dimmer, and barn doors in the primary suite maximize space efficiency without sacrificing design. A custom built bar was added into the living room for entertaining guests. Behind the walls, the renovation was comprehensive, with new plumbing, upgraded electrical, insulation, and wiring, executed to the highest standard. A key code entry system, new ceiling fans inside and out, and smart efficiency upgrades ensure modern comfort and ease. Outdoor living is equally refined. The 7.5' wide by 32' level piazza features gas-like lanterns, a lower Garapa hardwood sundeck (an $8,000 install) with step lighting, and a newly landscaped turf patio with drainage system. A widened gate and new concrete golf cart pad with charging outlet bring rare convenience to downtown living. With 2 deeded off-street parking spaces, a true luxury in the city, and the distinction of being the largest unit in the building, this residence offers exclusivity, efficiency, and effortless style. Positioned just steps from King Street, MUSC, Colonial Lake, and Hampton Park, this home places Charleston's best dining and lifestyle destinations at your doorstep, Chubby Fish, Seahorse, Allora, Vern's, Chez Nous, Bad Bunnies Coffee, Nook Tiny Cafe, Babas on Cannon, and Charlie's Grocery on Spring, along with boutique fitness studios such as The Longevity Club, Ethos Athletic Club, and the MUSC Wellness Center. 230 Rutledge Avenue is more than a home; it's a masterclass in thoughtful design and Charleston living, where craftsmanship, comfort, and convenience converge in perfect harmony.
