Overview
Unit A only being offered. One of the citys oldest and rarest examples of a 19th century partial row or semi detached Italian Villa style structure. The phrase timeless elegance comes to mind. Built in 1854, and attributed to the prolific Charleston Architect Edward C Jones, the period interiors still remain mostly in tact with plasterwork, broad wooden panels, original flooring, eleven foot ceilings and noteworthy moldings. Together these architectural elements add to the sense of the grandeur of the period as was intended. Yet all of the modern amenities are there, new kitchen and 2.5 elegant baths, two very large bedrooms with the master en-suite bath, and a third bedroom that is a single, cozy and with a private opening to the fine second level piazza. The garden, shared with the condo below, has been completely restored to the highest level by the present owner of 34 A, with plantings, boxwood, fruit trees, an elegant wall fountain and puti. The kitchen opens directly onto a romantic European style terrace beautifully proportioned for elegant dining overlooking this magnificent garden. Surrounded by an ornate iron fence and an intricate front gate, one cannot help but want to go up the stairs to the front door. Spacious two story living, this historic villa is perfect as pied- a- terre, or city home for discerning residents who love to entertain in Charleston style! Street parking easily available, regime documents in place, contributes to the easy stylish Charleston living at its best. Presently owned by an accomplished Interior Designer, it is in pristine condition. A long list of seller improvements are available upon request. Fireplaces are ornamental. Laundry room combined with small office space for the professional or work from home owner. New Residential Parking stickers and street parking limited to one hour without permit on Montagu Street.
