A rare offering in the heart of Charleston's historic district, the Ancrum Wharf Building presents a turnkey, lock-and-leave residence that seamlessly blends 18th-century character with modern luxury. One of the city's few remaining wharf buildings, this award-winning property has been meticulously restored, offering effortless elegance with unparalleled convenience. Positioned at the intersection of East Bay and Tradd Streets, this home is steps from Waterfront Park, Hasell Park, and the Battery, while Charleston's world-class dining, shopping, and cultural attractions are just outside your door. Panoramic views in all four directions--including rooftop glimpses of the harbor, the Charleston skyline, and the cobblestone charm of South Adgers Wharf--allow you to take in the beauty of the city without ever leaving home. Designed for both elegance and livability, the main living space and primary suite are located on the second floor, maximizing natural light and capturing breathtaking views. The Grand Salon is an entertainer's dream, offering a dramatic, open-concept living space framed by near floor-to-ceiling windows and anchored by a chef's kitchen with Sub-Zero refrigeration, double ovens, and custom SieMatic cabinetry. A sense of grandeur continues throughout the home, with beautifully appointed bedrooms, spa-like baths, and custom dressing areas designed for ultimate comfort. Beyond its unparalleled location and exquisite interiors, this property is uniquely designed for ease of ownership. The two gated parking spaces are just a short walk away, and with smart home features, a monitored security system, and minimal maintenance required, this is the perfect Charleston pied-à-terre. For those seeking a strong investment opportunity, 90 East Bay has also been successfully rented as a monthly executive rental, generating approximately $25,000 per month. Whether you are looking for a luxurious second home, a sophisticated city retreat, or a historic residence that offers the best of Charleston at your doorstep, this property is an unmatched opportunity to own an exceptional piece of history. A home that embodies Charleston's past, present, and future elegantly restored, move-in ready, and waiting for its next chapter.
