Description

Own a piece of history on one of the most beloved streets in the city! The Gustave Bernardt Marle House at 14 Queen Street has been beautifully reimagined for modern living. This exceptional French Quarter Charleston home blends nearly two centuries of architectural character with refined contemporary updates. Behind an elegant iron gate, a brick garden path leads to the front door of this storied masonry residence, offering a rare amount of privacy in one of the city's most coveted locations. Inside, original wide-plank heart pine floors, soaring ceilings, detailed crown molding, and abundant natural light immediately set the tone. The gracious living room flows seamlessly into the dining room, anchored by a striking center staircase that rises three stories.

Supplements: An enormous working gas fireplace with an ornate mantel highlights the dining space, which opens directly onto a charming walled courtyardideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. The chef's kitchen is both timeless and functional, featuring white marble countertops, three sun-filled windows, a Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and thoughtful finishes that complement the home's historic fabric. The second-floor primary suite is a true retreat, complete with dual custom built-in closets, a fireplace, and a luxurious bath with a glass-enclosed shower, and a soaking tub offering views of St. Philip's Church steeple. A guest bedroom with en suite bath overlooks the French Quarter rooftops, while a dedicated laundry room and built-in storage complete the level. The third floor provides two additional bedrooms or flex space along with a newly added bathroom, with previously approved architectural plans by Glenn Keyes to add dormers. Notable recent improvements include a new HVAC system, whole-house dehumidifier, updated windows on the second floor, fully encapsulated crawl space, new washer and dryer, designer window treatments, refreshed stair runner, new courtyard fountain, custom screen door, interior and exterior repainting in 2023, and a resealed metal roof. A newly installed historic plaque further honors the home's role in Charleston's evolving narrative. Originally constructed in the early 19th century following the Great Fire of 1810, the property later housed Marle's Bakery,one of the French Quarter's longest-running neighborhood institutionsbefore its mid-century conversion to a private residence. Later, the site of a tragic high profile crime that resulted in a sensational trial in 1958. Today, it stands as a thoughtfully preserved and respectfully interpreted piece of Charleston history. High and dry in the heart of the French Quarter, just steps from art galleries, Waterfront Park, world-class dining, and King Street shopping, this four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath residence epitomizes classic Charleston livingwhere history, beauty, and livability converge.
