    Set in the heart of Ansonborough, one of Charleston's most coveted historic neighborhoods, this impeccably maintained late 19th-century Charleston Single house is a rare offering that seamlessly blends period architecture with refined contemporary living. At just over 2,700 square feet, the residence lives far larger than its footprint suggests, offering generous proportions, gracious entertaining spaces, and an effortless indoor-outdoor connection that defines the very best of Lowcountry living. A wide and welcoming entry foyer sets the tone for the home's elegant features. The double drawing rooms are filled with light due to the abundance of large two-over-two glass paned windows on three sides of the home. A separate dining room with two sets of French doors leads to a stunning atrium-like addition transforming the kitchen and den into a year-round retreat. Double-height floor-to-ceiling sliding glass walls open to reveal spectacular views of the private garden. The kitchen is well appointed and efficient with stone countertops, custom cabinetry and luxury appliances. The open floor plan allows the cook to be part of all the action. Upstairs, the grand primary suite is private and spacious with direct access to the second-floor piazza, making this a perfect place to enjoy a quiet moment or a morning cup of coffee. The primary bath features high-quality finishes including marble basket-weave tile, large shower enclosure, and dual sinks. Two charming guest bedrooms share a beautifully appointed bath with double sinks, a large soaking tub and a serene garden view, while a deep walk-in cedar closet and a thoughtfully designed hallway office complete the upper level. Designed by noted landscape architect Glen Gardener, the lush, rear garden is an urban sanctuary. The elevated deck with a sculptural firepit and grill station, seating and dining areas allows you to enjoy the garden for multiple purposes. An elevated pond and fountain complete the serene setting. An added bonus is the private brick driveway accommodating two vehicles in tandem for off-street parking. Numerous exterior and interior refinements - undertaken with care and quality, make this a truly move-in ready home. Whether you are seeking a full-time residence or a distinguished pied-à-terre in one of America's great historic cities, this remarkable property is ready for its next chapter.
