Welcome home to this original 1930s Southern cottage, tucked behind a private iron gate and shaded by grand live oaks, offering timeless charm across 1.6 acres and one of the most picturesque backyards on the prestigious Wappoo Cut. Rich in character, well maintained and brimming with potential, this property captures the essence of Lowcountry living--just minutes from historic downtown Charleston. Inside, expansive windows flood the home with natural light and offer water views from nearly every room. Multiple fireplaces, original built-ins, and thoughtfully designed living spaces reflect the warmth and craftsmanship of a bygone era. A gracious wraparound front porch welcomes you in, while a covered back porch, rear brick patio, and garden courtyard invite you to unwind, entertain, or transform the space into something uniquely yours. The expansive backyard, anchored by a newly rebuilt private seawall along the tidal waterway, offers room for future expansion or even a pool. The home also boasts a new roof and a new HVAC system upstairs, ensuring comfort and peace of mind for years to come. An unfinished attic presents even more opportunity, ideal for expanding the home's square footage with extra bedrooms, office space, or a loft-style retreat, all without changing the footprint. Enjoy effortless access to the neighborhood boat landing and community park just down the street and convenient access to all that downtown Charleston has to offer! A rare opportunity to own a slice of Charleston's history, meticulously maintained with tons of potential to update and make it your own.
