Property Description
Nestled gracefully upon a generous corner lot of .52 acres within the coveted Crescent neighborhood, this iconic brick residence constructed in 1955, was brought to life by the illustrious architect Douglas Ellington, known for his Beaux-Arts Architecture. Thoughtful renovations by the current residents, the home's second stewards, have renovated features while preserving its intrinsic charm. The dwelling includes a gracious and traditional floor plan, perfectly tailored for hosting guests and enjoying family. A notable feature of this remarkable home is its inclusion in the Preservation Society of Charleston House & Garden Tour for 2024.

You will be captivated by the stunning front entry, which features a leaded glass transom window above the Charleston Green door, complemented by meticulously restored vintage brass hardware. Upon entering the foyer, you will notice that the current owners have preserved the classic toile wallpaper, which harmonizes beautifully with the rest of the home. This space is further enhanced by a French vintage light fixture that provides illumination. To the left, the expansive formal living room boasts a fireplace with an intricately detailed original hearth. This bright and airy room offers picturesque views of the elevated patio and the lush grounds beyond. The formal dining room, currently utilized as a sitting area, leads into a sunny kitchen equipped with modern appliances, a coffee bar, and a newly installed laundry area. The family room features built-in shelving with a wet bar, while the dining area and sitting room include a second fireplace. Sliding doors and a wall of windows provide a delightful view of the yard and courtyard, creating an inviting atmosphere throughout the home. Ascending to the upper level, the home reveals four inviting bedrooms, crowned by a primary suite that boasts a newly renovated ensuite bathroom and a separate walk-in closet. The additional three bedrooms each offer unique features, including built-in storage. The current owners have contemplated various avenues for architectural expansion, with exciting ideas. It is not merely the home itself that renders this property exceptional; rather, it is the surrounding lot adorned with vintage camellias, lush boxwoods, and historic live oaks. These elements not only enhance the landscape but also provide remarkable privacy, creating a personal sanctuary behind the home's original brick wall and the newly added wooden gate, which grants access to an exquisite courtyard and estate-like setting. The property features multiple areas ideal for entertaining, including an elevated patio and several pathways that meander throughout the landscape. Noteworthy highlights and enhancements include rewiring of the entire house and detached garden shed, including newly installed electrical panels, wiring, outlets, and switches, with thoughtful planning for a future pool and/or generator; designer lighting throughout, featuring an imported foyer light from France; recessed lighting added in the living and family rooms; and upgraded exterior lighting. Additional improvements encompass new ceiling fans in the bedrooms and family room, renovated bathrooms, a revamped master closet, refinished hardwood floors, a newly added laundry room, a new vapor barrier, a new Rinnai tankless water heater, new kitchen appliances (excluding the cooktop), an electric vehicle charging station, a termite bond, and architectural plans for potential renovations. The Crescent HOA fee is a modest $275 annually, and the sellers maintain a flood policy at approximately $875 annually. With its prime locale, timeless architectural allure, and proximity to the esteemed Porter-Gaud Campus, the charming shops of Windemere, Downtown Charleston, and local beaches, this exceptional Crescent property embodies an ideal sanctuary to call home.
