About This Property

Built in 1790 and known as the John Laurens North House, this extraordinary Charleston Single blends timeless elegance with modern comfort in the heart of the coveted South of Broad neighborhood. Situated on a rare double lot, the gated property offers exceptional privacy, abundant natural light, and expansive outdoor living spaces designed for effortless entertaining. Double piazzas overlook beautifully landscaped grounds, while a series of brick courtyards, stone patios, fountains, and manicured lawns create a true garden retreat in the center of historic Charleston. The generous backyard also offers ample room for the addition of a pool.Inside, a gracious entry foyer introduces the home's classic floor plan and remarkable craftsmanship. Formal living and dining rooms flank the foyer, each filled with sunlight from oversized windows and accented by heart pine floors, intricate moldings, crystal chandeliers, and marble-surround fireplaces. Fourteen sets of French doors seamlessly connect the interior spaces with the piazzas and gardens beyond, enhancing the home's airy, light-filled ambiance.
