Description
Circa 1865, 124 Mary Street offers a fantastic opportunity to live in a renovated historic gem in the sought-after Old Village. This 4,857 sq. ft. property, with an 832 sq. ft. guest cottage, was likely built by Reverend John F. Fell, a leading clergyman of Christ Church Parish. It showcases Greek Revival style influences with character-defining features such as the full-length front piazza supported by Tuscan columns, 6/6 wooden-sash windows, and classical wooden mantelpieces. Stepping inside, you are greeted by a light-filled foyer with hand-painted plaster walls, a study with built-ins, and a formal dining room. The first floor is highlighted by original hardwood floors, Urban Electric lighting, and three fireplaces. The beautiful chef's kitchen features a breakfast nook, a waterfall marble island countertop, a Shaws farm sink and an abundance of storage. It is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine storage, and a Wolf range, convection oven, and microwave drawer. This open concept space leads into the family room, creating the perfect flow for entertaining and gatherings. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite showcases a spa-like bath and multiple walk-in closets. Two guest bedrooms with fireplaces and a shared bath can also be found on this level. On the third floor, there are two additional guest bedrooms with a shared bath. The property includes many modern updates for comfort and security. The roof on both the main house and guest house was replaced in 2019. The home is equipped with a Generac generator, thirty-six new Pella hurricane-rated windows and doors, and exterior lighting by Moonlighting. The property also features dry wells for drainage and a Sonitrol fire/security and temperature control monitoring system. Outside, your private backyard oasis awaits. Enjoy your Charleston summer by the saltwater pool and dine al fresco with the convenience of your outdoor kitchen. Lush landscaping leads to the 832 sq. ft. guest house, which offers a full kitchen, seating area, bedroom, and full bath. The large spacious .29 acre lot provides ample off-street parking. Come enjoy all the Old Village has to offer with historic parks, the Pitt Street Bridge, and numerous neighborhood restaurants and shops right outside your door. This fantastic Mount Pleasant location is just minutes from the beaches of Sullivan's Island and historic downtown Charleston.
