Charleston Historic HomesBuyers come from all over the world to purchase Charleston historic homes. With as many as 4 million visitors coming each year to the two by five mile peninsula, many discover the beauty and dignified charm of Charleston and simply do not want to leave.

Charleston historic homes have many stories to tell, and with a very active preservation society in place and tight controls on how these historic properties are to remain a reflection a time long past, the result is an old world city with modern conveniences.

Many buyers to turn to the highly sought after South of Broad neighborhood between the Battery and Broad Street as a destination to enjoy a second home until retirement. The cobblestone streets, the vibrant small city life, the density of the some of America’s best restaurants; all of these attributes secure Charleston as one of the most popular cities in the country to visit.

The market surrounding Charleston historic homes is not large, but very diverse, consequently the city offers a variety of property types for the most discerning of buyers. There are condos, townhouses, single family homes, old homes that were turned into condos, historic preservation garden homes and mansions along the waterfront where the first shots of the Civial War was fired. And with this great variety of property choices, comes different nuances associated with each.

Consider these variables with the purchase of Charleston historic homes:

  • Proximity to the market and other popular tourist destinations.
  • Is the property on a carriage route?
  • Does the property have off-street parking?
  • If no parking is available, what is the closest paid parking option and how much is it monthly?
  • If a mansion has been divided into condos, what does the regime fee include?
  • Is the property close to the College of Charleston?
  • Is the property close to the Medical University?
  • Are their college rental properties nearby?
  • Is is easy to walk to restaurants and boutique shopping?

The peninsula is not your typical grid layout like most cities. The streets can be very confusing at first, so knowing the traffic patterns, which are one way (and when do they turn two way)  and even the carriage tour routes are important factors when considering purchasing Charleston historic homes
