Overview
Historic beach house seeks dynamic owner to love and restore it. If you have ever wanted to take a house with good bones and great details that hasn't been ruined by a poor restoration, this may be just what you are looking for. This house has such possibilities- it's size alone gives it wonderful potential. Plus its located on a street to street lot just two blocks from the ocean and close enough to the business district that everything is just a short walk. The house has a legal two bedroom, two bathroom apartment on the ground floor with private entrances. This unit could be a great source of income. Upstairs the main house is on two floors with the living areas on the first floor and the bedrooms above. You'll find hardwood floors throughout and many of the rooms feature tongueand grove paneled walls and tall ceilings. The house has large windows, many of which remind you that its original builder, more than 100 years ago, was a devout Episcopalian as well as carpenter. In the dining room you'll find stain glass windows that feature chalices. In other rooms the windows are arch shape. The living room spans the entire front of the house and has an large bay window and numerous french doors that open onto the wide wrap around porch. Another one of the first floor rooms has a fireplace and shelves suggesting its use as a possible study or office. Upstairs there are four bedrooms, two of which do not have closets. The master is in the front of the house so it can enjoy the second story wrap around porch and the view of the Sullivans Island lighthouse. The master suite also has a private bath and closet. There is a deck off the back of the house that lets you enjoy the large fenced backyard which has ample room for a pool and garage. There is also additional storage on the ground floor behind the apartment. This area would also make an excellent workshop.
