Downtown 1850's Mansion in Historic Charleston

Summary:

Enjoy a refined antebellum experience with amenities both new and crafted from reclaimed pieces of Charleston history. This property features 9 unique queen bedrooms and 6 beautiful bathrooms. This includes truly Charleston private porches and patios, incredibly crafted kitchens, living spaces, and private entrances. Every detail has been fully renovated to feature antique heart pine flooring, tongue and groove walls, and European hardware dating to the original period of the home.



The Space:

The Charlestonian summons the essence of a truly refined Antebellum Charleston experience, through truly paired with every modern convenience.

The kitchens are timeless centerpieces, featuring timeless La Cornue gas ovens and cooktops from Saint-Ouen-l’Aumône, France, complemented by whisper-quiet, American-made Vent-A-Hoods. Guests are invited to celebrate Old World culinary traditions using top-of-the-line All-Clad cookware and glassware. Custom cabinetry, kitchen islands, and soaring eight-foot barn doors are handcrafted on-site from reclaimed heart pine, sourced during the home’s renovations.

Entertainment is seemlessly modern with Samsung 4k Smart televisions, offering complimentary access to Xfinity cable, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Hulu.

Each bedroom is designed for rest, offering sound machines and smart charging stations, surrounded by cypress shiplap walls and centuries-old heart pine—much of it dating back to the early 1600’s.

The bathrooms are masterful blend of history and luxury, tiled with original repurposed Vermont slate dating to 1851, when the house was built by shipwrights. Salvaged standing-seam tin from the original front porch roof forms a striking backsplash behind the hand-hammered, nickel-plated vessel sinks. Period-inspired water closets sourced from Kent, England complete the Old World aesthetic.

Outdoors, guests can embrace the Charleston tradition: relaxing on the porches and enjoying the coastal breeze. Rocking chairs overlook Cannon Street, while a private rear porches and patios offer additional space to unwind, complete with a lounge sofa and Acorn barbecue grill.
