51 Cannon St, Charleston, SC 29403

Lovingly restored historic gem in Charleston's fastest growing neighborhood. If you seeking antiquity with modern conveniences, look no further. The lovely home has not been over renovated, it retains original floors, mantels, built in cabinets. The floor plan and flow are classic Charleston Single house, maximizing the breezes off of the many spacious porches. The home overlooks a lush professionally designed garden. There are two off street parking spaces adjacent. Charming atelier style third floor currently houses a home office but would also make the fourth bedroom suite. The master is located on the second floor and offers a large walk in closet and adjoining master bath with walk in shower and original restored antique claw foot tub. The focal point of the master is the lovely exposed brick fireplace and original preserved mantel. Master opens onto a private upstairs piazza overlooking the back garden. Guest room and guest full bath are also located on the second floor, and the front room downstairs could be used as a library or an additional bedroom with it's own half bath adjoining. The entry hall leads to the original period stair case with intact rails and balustrades. To the right of the entrance is a living room, separate dining room with access to the porch and kitchen. The kitchen exhibits the homes transition from antique and modern with period enamel farmers sink and original cupbord as well as mid century cabinetry. A deluxe stainless gas range and granite counter tops are a chefs dream. Nearly every room in the home is bathed in light and opens onto a large porch. The garden has tropical flowers and formal hard scape as well as Italian cypress and too many other plantings and topiary to mention. A patio serves as out door dining area and leads to a lovely potting house with french doors, high ceilings and ample storage space.
