Description

Located on one of Charleston's most cherished streets in the coveted South of Broad neighborhood, this handsome historic residence, built circa 1872, offers timeless character, thoughtful updates, and an exceptional opportunity to own a well-priced home in the heart of the peninsula. Positioned on original high ground in historic downtown, the home offers a gracious and highly livable floor plan. A welcoming foyer opens to generous living and dining spaces, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The recently updated kitchen features modern finishes and a breakfast bar, creating a natural gathering space at the heart of the home. Just beyond, a private courtyard provides a charming outdoor retreat for dining or quiet relaxation.Upstairs, the second level offers three well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms, creating a comfortable layout for family living or guests. The bathrooms have been thoughtfully upgraded by the current owners with marble and high-quality finishes, complementing the home's historic character. The four fireplaces ground the main rooms with one gas log set functional in the main living room. The downstairs library/den off the kitchen offers a unique opportunity to have a downstairs bedroom as a fourth guest space or main floor master. The bathroom with shower offers unique flexibility that is hard to find downtown. At the rear of the property, a two-story detached garage structure provides valuable off-street parking and additional flexibility rarely found in this neighborhood. The upper level offers a bonus living space well suited for a home office or studio, with the potential to convert the entire structure into a charming guest cottage or efficiency apartment. With its historic provenance, thoughtful updates, and prime South of Broad location just moments from the Battery, parks, and Charleston's renowned dining and culture, this home has the added convenience of the cherished Burbages Corner Grocery store. 38 Savage Street represents an exceptional value in one of the city's most prestigious neighborhoods.
