Jonathan badger tenement, c. 1770 this exquisite three-story, single house dates to circa 1770 (brick portion possibly dating to circa 1693) and is located in the grand modell of historic downtown charleston. This enviable location just off broad and king streets is within walking distance to shopping, dining, and other activities downtown charleston has to offer. With southern exposure and light in every room, the home exudes a friendly, airy feeling. Rooms in home are comfortable, but not large. Upon entering this magnificent home, you are greeted by a gracious entrance hall – notice the original 1770 lock on the front door. The first floor offers a formal living room displaying characteristics of georgian decoration, with its fireplace protruding into the room, beautiful mantle shelf, and dentil molding on the ceiling trim. A music room and formal dining room also have fireplaces and are adorned with beautiful moldings and high ceilings. A powder room, located off the music room, could be converted into a full bath. The spacious kitchen features 2 wall ovens, an electric cooktop with ventilated grill, a built-in microwave, refrigerator, trash compactor, instant hot water dispenser, garbage disposal, and ice maker. A walk-in pantry, ample cabinet storage, and a ceiling fan with a charming light fixture complete the kitchen. Adjoining the kitchen is a cozy den warmed by a large brick fireplace. Behind the den is a garage/store room/utility room, which is accessible from the den or through the garden. The second level offers the master bedroom with a large walk-in closet/dressing room for the man, as well as a lady’s dressing room with a fireplace, multiple closets, and a vanity. The full bath (attached to the master bedroom) contains two sinks, a bidet, toilet, jacuzzi tub, and separate shower. A drawing room/library boasts a fireplace flanked by built-ins. Two additional rooms, which could serve as a bedroom, study/office, or sitting room, share a full bath. On the third level, two grand bedrooms afford plenty of wonderful light and share a full bath. In addition, the front room has a cedar-lined closet. Additional highlights include: 8 total fireplaces (6 of which have vented gas logs); ceiling fans in the second level library, master bedroom, lady’s dressing room, and the two bedrooms on the third level; pull-down stairs giving access to an attic, which has about 5 ft height; and three zones of heat/air conditioning. The private and gated bricked driveway, which is deep enough to accommodate parking for 4 cars, leads to a glorious formal garden containing mature azaleas, camellias, loquats, mini magnolias, yew, juniper, and 120 (yes) 120 rose bushes, which will be in full bloom beginning around april 25 and bloom until frost.
