This elegant Georgian home sits on the corner of 1 Philadelphia Alley and Queen Street on high ground in the French Quarter. Built in 1790, it has been fully renovated with careful attention to detail, balancing between renovation and restoration. Restored in 2006, this property is everything a Charleston home should be. Its kitchen was renovated in 2012 with top-of-the-line Thermador appliances, Carrara marble countertops, beautiful cabinetry and plenty of pantry and storage space. On the first floor, there is a stately dining room and a sunroom that overlooks a lush courtyard filled with a koi pond and fountain. The second floor has a guest bedroom with a sitting room and en suite bath. It offers plenty of closet and storage space which is unusual for homes of this period. An elegant master suite is on the third floor. The master bath has just been renovated with dual sinks and dressing areas that include closets and storage. Another spacious bedroom which could be used as office is found on the fourth floor. Additional upgrades include re-painting of the home in 2018 and new handmade mahogany windows paned with old glass in 2019. The two HVAC systems were also replaced in 2018 and 2020. The home has had no history of flooding during the present ownership. 22 Queen Street has been on the Preservation Society of Charleston and Historic Charleston Foundation's home tours for the past decade. It is within easy walking distance to restaurants, shops, museums, art galleries, Waterfront Park, Dock Street Theater and many more of this city's best attractions.
