Property Description
A full bank of doors opens to the traditional side porch, bringing in even more light and giving the house that classic Charleston feel. Some doors have been sealed shut but could easily be made functional again.
Outside, the fenced backyard is surprisingly private for downtown, with a full privacy fence and room for pets, entertaining or simply having some outdoor space of your own. There is also one dedicated off-street parking space.
One of the more unusual features is the detached garage in the backyard. It is a very large storage space, which is hard to come by downtown. The structure was built by a previous owner with the intention of creating living quarters above, but that space was never finished and the current owner has only used the building for storage. Someone may choose to explore other possibilities for it in the future, subject to permits, zoning and any necessary improvements. The stairs to the upper portion have not been verified as safe and should not be used during showings.
The original metal roof was recoated in 2023, and a new HVAC condenser was installed in 2026.
The location is incredibly convenient. You can easily walk or bike to MUSC, The Citadel, WestEdge, Publix, coffee shops and restaurants, while being just off the Crosstown for quick access to I-26, West Ashley, James Island and the rest of Charleston.
The new Ashley River Crossing pedestrian and bicycle bridge is also currently under construction nearby. When complete, it will connect downtown Charleston with West Ashley and the West Ashley Greenway, with connections into Brittlebank Park and the Ashley River Walk.
The property is located in an AE flood zone, but neither the home nor the yard has flooded during the seller's 23+ years of ownership, including during periods of heavy rain when other downtown streets experienced flooding.
This is not being marketed as a completely renovated home. There are additional updates a future owner could make if they want to take it to its highest potential. The seller has priced the property with that in mind and intends to sell it as-is, with no repairs planned unless a structural issue is discovered.
What it does offer today is a move-in-ready downtown house with three bedrooms plus a flex room, two baths, high ceilings, hardwood floors, an updated kitchen, a full side porch, fenced backyard, off-street parking, and an unusually large detached garage/storage building.
That is a lot of house, space and functionality for downtown Charleston at this price point.
