A hidden gem! This 1955 bungalow has been recently renovated and is located just 3.5 miles from the peninsula, 1 block from the West Ashley bike path, and across the street from the West Ashley Greenway. This 1300 square foot house features a "cook's kitchen" with custom cabinets with full extension drawers, custom pull-out counters for extra prep space, a large pantry, pine flooring, pendant and under-cabinet lighting, and custom niches. Built-in dishwasher and microwave included. There is also a large formal dining room with wood floors. Each bedroom has its own full bathroom: perfect for two roommates! Two of the three bathrooms feature marble floors. There are built-in bookcases and wood floors in both bedrooms, and a walk-in closet in the master bedroom. The front porch has been renovated with slate. Out back, there is a small upper deck with an arbor that is perfect for a bistro table and chairs. A few steps lower, there is a larger custom deck that has plenty of space for seating and grilling areas. There is a small built-in water garden as well. The back yard has mature trees and plenty of shade, making it an enjoyable space even in the heat of summer. There is also a raised garden bed and large workshop/storage shed. The workshop was custom built to match the house and features shelving, electric, windows, and plenty of room for storing bikes, gardening supplies, kayaks, or even a motorcycle. The yard is fully fenced and has plenty of room in the driveway for 2+ cars. The HVAC was recently replaced and upgraded, resulting in a perfectly heated and cooled house all year long for about $150/month. There is a Brinks security system that can be activated at the renter's expense. There is a laundry room with an entire wall of storage cabinets, a utility sink, and a stackable washer/dryer. Available September 15th for a 12-month lease. Rent includes quarterly pest control. Pets of some breeds/sizes will be considered. Note: If you see this house listed on CL, it is a scam. Pest control provided by owner.
