The serene primary suite, located at the back of the home, features a walk-in closet with custom built-ins, private porch access, and an ensuite bath with a large double vanity and marble shower. The backyard has been thoughtfully designed as a private resort-like retreat. At its center is a beautifully finished pool, wrapped in lush tropical landscaping and elegant marble decking provides ample space for lounging, dining, and entertaining. An open-air cabana anchors the space and extends the home's living area outdoors. Featuring a wood-burning fireplace, the cabana is ideal for gathering in every season, whether enjoying warm summer evenings poolside or cozy fall nights by the fire. Low-maintenance turf between the pool and cabana ensures effortless upkeep while maintaining a polished aesthetic.

Together, the pool, cabana, and surrounding grounds create an exceptional outdoor living environment-perfect for quiet mornings, lively entertaining, and long Charleston summer days. A rare blend of historic charm, modern comfort, and an unbeatable downtown location- this is Charleston living at its finest.
