Circa 1768 -- The Joseph Veree House. Classic early Georgian architecture graces this wonderful South of Broad home. To-the-period proportions and scale combined with modern additions allow for today's living.

On the main level, the entry, drawing room and dining rooms all offer the best example of mid-18th Century woodwork and scale. Behind the newly redesigned kitchen is a comfortable den with its own full bath overlooking the elegant, terraced garden. On the 2nd level, the spacious primary suite, with its gorgeous over mantels opens to a newly updated bath and closet suite.Opposite the primary is another finely detailed library/den opening to the 2nd floor piazza with Southern views. The 3rd floor is complete with a charming guest bedroom and bath. At the 2nd level rear, you will find another beautifully appointed guest bedroom with en-suite bath, overlooking an incredible private terraced garden designed by Glenn Gardner. The location is picturesque and perfect. Stroll down historic Church Street day or night to enjoy the beauty. Well cared for, all systems up to date. Gated off street parking.
