8 Savage

About

This beautifully renovated and light-filled home on tree-lined Savage Street lends itself to a high quality of life. Charming front and back porches, off-street parking, and a private Charleston garden capture the historic and graceful features Downtown Charleston is known for. Savage Street is its own neighborhood of sorts. Situated a short stroll away from several well-known neighborhood features like Burbage's Grocery, Colonial Lake, Moultrie tennis courts and playground, White Point Gardens, King Street, the Battery, Safe Harbour Marina and Charleston Harbor.This house retains elegant historical elements including the side hall floorplan, tall ceilings, picture rails, corner mantles, 2-over-2 windows, transom lights, and well preserved German siding, all which serve to give this home its sublime charm. Original hardware is featured throughout the house alongside tasteful choices from Charleston Hardware. The floor plan allows for the use of the downstairs reading room as a 4th bedroom/guest suite on the 1st floor. The living and dining rooms flow into the European-style kitchen with stainless Blomberg and Kucht appliances. Electric, water heater, and HVAC were replaced during the renovation. Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms and 2 beautiful bathrooms. The primary suite in the rear of the home was enlarged with a tasteful en-suite bathroom and a private upstairs rear porch overlooking the garden. A handmade brick driveway accommodates two cars with ample room to spare. A jasmine archway entrance featuring a wrought iron garden gate from 1890 leads to the rear French doors by way of a winding stone path. There is also an existing wooden storage shed in the garden ready to be repurposed. This property is an excellent choice as a primary or secondary residence.
