Sitting on a rare double lot South of Broad, this Dr. Joseph Johnson House circa 1810, is located on lower Church St. less than a block from White Point Garden. A classic Charleston single house, the home retains its original character with special details of beaded Cypress weatherboarding, several pairs of old paneled shutters, and an early-nineteenth-century fanlighted piazza door screen (per buildings of Charleston by Jonathon Poston). It has double parlors, beautiful mantels, heart pine floors, and a gourmet kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances. The kitchen is just off the family room and each has views of the pool area and gardens. Added features are updated baths, including the master (which has a Duravit air tub and a steam shower), and classic Walker Zanger marble wainscoting.Custom dual master vanities each have great storage and mounted TVs for viewing the morning news. The exterior is beautifully lit and fully enclosed. There is even an invisible fence and hot and cold dog bathing area for your pooch. Lots of additional storage over the garage and in the heated and cooled attic. A separate guest house has a large brick fireplace, kitchen, bedroom, and full bath and is approximately 782 sq ft. This home is truly one-of-a-kind. Make it yours and live well!
