Situated within one of the exclusive four boroughs that make up historic Charleston, this Harleston Village condominium makes an ideal downtown residence, whether for full or part-time use. On the market for the first time in more than a decade, unit 2 is one of three dwellings that make up this restored 1890s Victorian residence overlooking historic Cannon Park. The unit was taken to the studs in 2008, making for a perfect blend of modern comfort with maintenance of charming characteristic architectural details like the wrap-around porch, turned columns, and gingerbread trim. Enter the unit via the shared foyer or enjoy access directly from the French doors from the wrap-around front porch - the side portion of which is for the exclusive use of this unit and offers park views. Inside, you'll immediately appreciate the high ceilings, Brazilian cherry hardwood flooring, custom plantation shutters, high-end trim details, and a functional gas fireplace. The kitchen offers custom ceiling-height cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances including a gas range. A powder room and under stair storage round out the first level.

Upstairs, there are two spacious bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom. The primary suite offers park views and features dual closets with built-in shelving. Laundry is located on the second-floor hall, and a rear door leads to a back entry foyer and deck with stairs leading directly to the spacious shared back patio that is beautifully hardscaped with historic brick.

While situated in a wonderful residential location, this property is just a short walk to MUSC and other area hospitals, the College of Charleston, and King Street shopping and dining. Street parking permits for two cars plus guest passes are available through the City of Charleston. Whether you are looking for a full-time home in a superb location or a well-situated pied-a-terre for enjoying downtown Charleston, 1 Bennett Street unit 2 can be yours.
