The Charles Elliott House, circa 1759, is a stunning example of charming and classic Charleston single house architecture. This three-story brick residence shares its original 18th century builder with its neighbor, 22 Legare Street. In 1911, the front elevation was renovated with the addition of brownstone panels below the windows and a curvilinear parapet. The property's gated driveway leads you to the first level piazza's front steps. Through the foyer you will be greeted by a grand staircase, flanked on the right by the gorgeous formal living room with fireplace and on the left by an elegant dining room, perfect for entertaining. The updated and spacious modern eat-in kitchen includes plenty of cabinet storage space, granite countertops and updated appliances.Finishing the first floor is a quaint den, a wine cellar as well as a bright and airy sunroom with views of the grounds, including a private garden and heated pool. Ascending the stairs, you will meet the second floor landing with access to this level's beautiful piazza with views overlooking the grounds. A large parlor awaits you, boasting built-in bookcases surrounding an ornately detailed fireplace. Also on this level you will find the master suite with sitting area, dressing room and en-suite bath, offering a restful oasis of luxury. Following the stairs to the third level you will find three additional bedrooms, two guest bathrooms, and an adjoining playroom or nursery. Conveniently attached to the home is a charming carriage house boasting two bedrooms, a full bath, and a perfect kitchen space. Outside you will be captivated by the elegantly designed garden with fountain as well as a parking area. A gorgeous pool completes this setting, making outdoor living a true Charleston dream. Located in the heart of South of Broad, 43 Legare Street is within two blocks of King Street shopping, restaurants and every downtown luxury. All sconces do not convey. All chandeliers do not convey.
