Property Description
Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity: Private Oasis Above the Ashley River!!!Nestled on a high bluff above the Ashley River, this nearly one-acre property offers a rare blend of natural tranquility and historic charm in Charleston. Originally built in 1932 and expanded in 1972, the home features classic Southern architecture with grand columns and a handcrafted chimney made from bricks salvaged from the burned St. Matthews Church in 1965. Surrounded by live oaks, magnolias, camellias, and azaleas draped in Spanish moss, the landscape offers unmatched beauty and peace, with steady river breezes adding to the serene atmosphere. The owner has made significant upgrades, including a new HVAC system and foundation work with a five-year transferable warranty from Mt. Valley.Inside, the home welcomes you with a grand foyer and spacious family room with a wood-burning fireplace. The first floor includes three bedrooms, while a private fourth bedroom with a loft area overlooks the marsh, ideal for entertaining.
This property is zoned for commercial use (CN), making it perfect for a small business with fleet vehicles, and offers parking for up to six vehicles. A covered carport at the rear could easily be converted into a large screened porch, adding even more living space. With 200 feet of river frontage and walking distance to local restaurants and shops, this location offers both privacy and convenience, with easy access to I-526 and Hwy 17.
This unique property offers a rare combination of history, beauty, and potential -- an opportunity that doesn't come around often.
