About This Property

Located in the heart of Harleston Village, 89 Ashley Avenue beautifully blends historic Charleston character with thoughtful modern updates and a large saltwater pool. Built in 1838, this classic brick Charleston single showcases Federal Period architecture with Flemish bond brickwork, a slate roof, high ceilings, detailed moldings, and original heart pine floors. The home also received a Carolopolis Award in 1974, recognizing its historic preservation and architectural significance.Spanning approximately 4,298 square feet across four levels, the home features five bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and one half bathroom. Light-filled interiors and generously scaled rooms offer both comfort and flexibility, while a grand central staircase with decorative millwork connects each level.Along the south side of the home, the iconic three-tiered piazzas provide inviting outdoor living spaces accessible from multiple rooms.

|

The garden level is designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, opening to a private courtyard and pool area. Recently renovated, the heated and chilled saltwater pool features lunar quartz tile, an ivory travertine deck, professionally landscaped grounds, and a tall Charleston-style privacy fence. Additional pool upgrades include a Hayward HeatPro heater/chiller system, new salt system, automatic autofill system, updated pool light controls, upgraded plumbing infrastructure, and enhanced equipment for easier maintenance and year-round enjoyment.

Inside, the kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, Haier refrigerator drawers, custom cabinetry, and a quartzite waterfall island. Kitchen lighting improvements, including relocated fixtures, updated recessed lighting, and improved switch functionality, enhance both form and function. French doors open directly to the pool terrace, creating an ideal setting for entertaining.
