Welcome to 3 Pierates Cruz, a charming house situated under enormous live oaks on an amazing waterfront lot. This five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath 1960's house boasts endless potential, ideal for the homeowner looking for the opportunity to add their own creativity to a piece of Charleston history. Enjoy the magnificent views of the Charleston Harbor and city from the spacious yard, deck, porch, and dock. Located in the midst of the Old Village right across from the recently renovated Alhambra playground, 3 Pierates Cruz is just a short drive to downtown Charleston and the pristine beaches of Sullivan's Island and Isle of Palms. Historically, Pierates Cruz was a private garden in the Old Village and well-known as the first tourist attraction in Mount Pleasant. After a couple from Massachusetts purchased the property in 1928, they transformed the garden into a botanical oasis, creating seven unique and intimate gardens, each with their own individual theme and title. These gardens remained as a popular tourist destination until the late 1950s. The property was then sold and divided into 13 residential lots adorning the horseshoe shaped street dubbed Pierates Cruz.
