Historical home on Sullivans Island, SC for sale can be yours!
Stunning family home excellent for children of all ages!! Formerly the Recreation Hall and Post Exchange for Fort Moultrie, this property has been turned into one of the most incredible family homes in all of Charleston where you can experience downtown style living but be at the beach! Situated in a great location between the lighthouse and Fort Moultrie, in the charming Sullivan's Island Historic District, this property is just a short walk to the beach, library, post office, churches, tennis courts, the boat landing, restaurants, open space, 2 parks, and it is a very short walk or bike ride to the school! The house has been completely renovated with the kitchen and all bathrooms being brand new and very high-end, and all of the mechanicals have been reworked so that this is basically
a brand new house inside of a beautiful and classic, historic shell. The structure offers a large floor plan with 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and apprx. 7,581 total square feet including 4,450 s.f. in the main living area and apprx. 3,132 s.f. in the recreation room. In addition, there is an attached garage plus three porches, all on a street-to-street, neatly landscaped lot that includes a great cistern that has been transformed into an outdoor fish aquarium already stocked with Carp! A reworked, open floor-plan with sky high ceilings (12' & 18'), this home features large rooms and plenty of oversized windows which provide plenty of light and great circulation. The recreation room is accessed through glass interior doors from the upstairs center foyer, the downstairs central hall, and the garage. This stunning restored space, where soldiers once danced and played indoor basketball, features a full balcony with a half-bath and a sitting area, 18' tin-paneled ceilings, eighteen 7' windows, wall sconces, plaster walls, and gleaming hardwood floors. Its uses are unlimited - play room, game room, workshop, art studio, basketball court, gymnasium, family gatherings, holiday parties, dances, business meetings, and formal entertaining. Special features include a slate roof, interior transom windows, deep exterior window sills, tin paneled ceilings, heart-pine floors, marble and tile floors, bead-board, exposed brick & granite walls, indoor gas fireplaces, upgraded lighting fixtures, master bedroom with private screened porch, huge walk-in closet, attached master bath with oversized custom shower, family bath with antique cast iron tub and newly tiled showers, numerous sets of glass French doors, custom built-ins including a small library, and tons of storage. This is truly a spectacular example of how an older, historic structure can be transformed into a gorgeous family home overflowing with history and charm. Partial owner financing available.
