You must see this meticulously restored 1820s Charleston Single overlooking Hampstead Square. It's an easy walk to the Cigar Factory and Historic King and Meeting Street's many local boutiques and eateries. This home was completely restored in 2005--under the ownership of William Bates--from the original timber frame structure, and heart-of-pine floors to the 19th Century light fixtures. (Mr. Bates founded the Drawing and Design Department at the American College of the Building Arts in Charleston.) Custom plaster details by renowned master artisan David Flaherty - the master plasterer for the Dept of State and The White House. The kitchen and the bathrooms are all updated and a beautiful full bath was recently added to the front bedroom creating dual master bedrooms.The kitchen features limestone floors, butcher-block counters, and high-end appliances. The large lush tropical garden includes fruit trees, ferns, palms, and boxwoods as well as a pair of magnificent urns and a fountain. There is also a private outdoor shower and a storage shed. Additionally, there are operable shutters, off-street parking for two cars, and a beautiful park out front.
