Colonial Lake is just down the street and the peninsula gives you plenty of places to go in order to enjoy the views and breeze of the water. This home is currently rented, however, it is located on a neighborhood street South of Broad that is mostly owner-occupied single family homes. The house does need TLC. The owners installed Drop-Ceilings when they were the fad in the 70's, but they could be removed and converted back to smooth ceilings. The kitchen wing was added around the same time and is separating from the house in the back which will require some repair. And the front porch has a lean on the left side. However, the bones are in great shape, the floors and walls look square and true to their original angles, and the original floors and charm of the house are all still there. With the right buyer, this wonderful South of Broad property will shine like the true Charleston masterpiece it really is. Buy today and continue to rent for $4100/month for a few years, and then move in. Making this retreat your home puts you in the heart of it all while remaining convenient to major roadways. Many homes claim to hold the key to potential and opportunity, but come take a look for yourself and you will see that this is the real deal!
