Charleston SC Real Estate Charleston Single Style James Island

James Island, SC Charleston Single Style Homes

Charleston SC classic single style homes are popular in Charleston, SC.  A few of these plans can be found on James Island. The Charleston single style homes feature a narrow floor plan and large porches on the front or sides. Many Charlestonians say that they were built narrowly because property taxes were based on how much street frontage a home occupied. The narrower the house, the less one would pay in taxes. Nobody is really certain that this is in fact the case.

One aspect of the Charleston Single style home I can confirm is that the large piazzas, and large windows were opened to accommodate the warm summer breezes in an effort to cool the house during the heat. The Charleston single style home is only one room wide so the efficiency of nature's HVAC was maximized.  Effectively, the house could be opened on all sides to let breezes flow through with ease.  While there are not too many offered in SC other than Downtown Charleston, Charleston Single style homes can sometimes be found on James Island.

Buying a home from you was like buying from a family member. You were honest, straight-forward and I could tell you were really looking out for my best interests at every turn. Beth Epstein

Well your low key approach worked. Not only did you sell our house in this challenged market in 23 days, you found us a great new home and the transition was seamless! We are really happy in our new home. Brian and Wendy Rollings

You were very honest, direct and I knew you were genuine when you talked us out of buying a house because of the location. Thanks for everything!. Kirk Matenaer

I commend you particularly for politely putting up with my sometimes cantankerous, if not outright offensive, goading for results; I now realize I was in excellent hands all along, and I could not have asked for better or more courteous direction in the whole process. Dr. Adam Smolka

Your research and explanation of the entire process left us feeling confident in your abilities to follow through and get the deal done like it should be. Bill Chakos

Your experience, your calming demeanor and your ability to consult us in such a streamlined fashion was invaluable. Tonya Chakos

We sincerely believe Nat's competence, hard work, attention to detail, and most important his immediate action were the reasons our home sold in one day. We are now able to make plans to relocate. Victoria and Daniel Doyle
