Property Description
Step into Charleston's history at 110 Beaufain Street, a stunning masonry Charleston Single built in 1839 and masterfully restored for modern living. Once home to merchants and mayors, this Neoclassical and Greek Revival residence offers a timeless presence overlooking historic Colonial Lake in the heart of downtown's historic district.Restored and designed by Ben and Kate Towill of Basic Projects with landscaping by Ables, the four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home spans three stories plus an finished attic space. It underwent a meticulous renovation approved by the Architectural Design Board, preserving original character while introducing elegant updates throughout. The 200-year-old plaster walls restored, original sanded down heart pine oak floors, historic mahogany windows upstairs, and reshaped, hand-sanded original trim blend seamlessly with new elements like stained-glass doors, a simple, sophisticated kitchen with carrara marble counters, aged brass hardware, Thermador appliances, and a snug perfect for cozy evenings. The den features a fully restored wood burning fireplace and the most exceptional views of Colonial Lake, with the home set back on the property to provide a quiet, private setting rarely found in this location.
The primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a soaking tub, dual solid marble sinks, a walk-in closet with custom lighting, and direct access to the second-level piazza, where soft breezes drift in from the lake. Upstairs, the third floor offers bright, spacious bedrooms with full en suite baths and closets. A versatile attic space provides additional room for a bunk area and home office, perfect for guests or a quiet workspace with views across the lake.
Outside, the private courtyard and landscaped gardens are centered around a saltwater pool with a spa and a pool house with all hook-ups for a sauna and cold plunge, creating a serene retreat ideal for both relaxing and entertaining. The home's design feels both high-end and comfortable throughout, from the interiors to the outdoor living spaces. The brick and oyster tabby driveway offers unmatched parking for three cars, a rare convenience on the Peninsula. Blending original architectural details with modern luxuries in a premier location, this home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Charleston's rich history.
