Daniel Island, SC Charleston Single Homes

Charleston SC classic single style homes are very popular styles on Daniel Island, SC.  The classic Charleston single features a narrow floor plan and large piazzas located either on the front or on the sides of the house. Rumors popular with locals in Downtown Charleston is that they were built narrowly because property an owners real estate taxes were based on how much street frontage a home occupied. The narrower the house, the less one would pay in taxes. There are of course many historians and tour guides alike that debate the truth to this discussion.

Tour guides showing the city frequently discuss the large piazzas, and how the large windows were opened to accommodate the warm summer breezes. This was a valiant effort to cool the house during the heat of the summer. With the Charleston single style home only one room wide, the efficiency of nature's HVAC was capitalized on. Imagine a hot July day with no breeze and no HVAC. Design styles were important and any capturing of a warm breeze was better than nothing.   The Charleston single style home can be opened on all sides to let breezes flow through the entire house with ease. Daniel Island is filled with these iconic, truly Charleston style homes and are very popular to home buyers int he area for their charm and classic Charleston look.
