Located in highly desirable Wagener Terrace, a rare opportunity to own a character-filled Charleston cottage on a generous lot with exceptional upside potential. This 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home includes a flexible bonus room converted from a former third bedroom and an unfinished attic that may offer future expansion possibilities. The bathroom was renovated in 2024, and the home retains its original charm while offering a great opportunity for updates and improvements. Property is being sold as is, and a recent home inspection has been completed and is available upon request. Just minutes from Hampton Park, downtown dining, and the peninsula lifestyle, this property is ideal for a buyer ready to restore and personalize a home in one of Charleston's most sought-after neighborhoods.
