Property Description
One of the most incredible Senior Officer's Row home to come on the market in years, and it has been meticulously maintained and beautifully updated, and it is the only one with a gunite pool and views of the ocean and marsh! The large property is located in the Fort Moultrie Historic District and has one of the most impressive Live Oak trees you've ever seen, mature landscaping with irrigation, and there is also plenty of off-street parking in the rear off of Poe Ave. These homes were beachfront when they were built, but the land in this section of the island has accreted allowing for another street and more homes as well. The home itself still has all of the original finishes and details like the wrap-around porches, soaring interior ceilings finished with extraordinary pressed tinceilings, ornate crown molding, beautiful original fireplace mantles surrounding 5 working wood-burning fireplaces, a gorgeous slate roof, and there are antique heart pine hardwood floors throughout the house. While all of the great original finishes remain in tact, the kitchen and bathrooms have been updated to modern day standards, and there is outside access from almost every room which allows for ocean breezes to flow throughout the house with all of the doors and windows open as was intended in the original design. The main level has a grand wrap around porch, entry foyer, separate dining room, living room, office, kitchen, half bath, and a guest suite with a full bathroom. The gourmet kitchen features granite counters, custom cabinetry, island with bar stool seating, wood beamed ceilings, brick fireplace, and stainless steel appliances including a professional grade Viking range. There is also access from most rooms through French doors out to the porch and access to the swimming pool and hot tub. The 2nd floor includes the spacious master suite which has access to another screened porch, and there are also the additional guest/kids' bedrooms and bathrooms on this level as well. The 3rd floor has been beautifully finished with a new full bathroom with custom cabinets, access to two decks with views of the ocean and marsh, and it makes for a perfect space for a second master or a mother-in-law suite. There is also a basement that provides tons of storage. The beach access path is just a few steps away, and the Sand Dunes Club is just as close for swimming and other activities, and the Sullivan's Island boat ramp is just a few blocks away as well. This is by far the best Officer's home to come on the market in many, many years with this level of value, and the neighborhood is simply terrific.
