Overview
Often called the ''Jewel Box,'' this beautifully restored Ansonborough carriage house stands out above the rest. As you enter the property through an elegant wrought iron gate, the bricked path leads you through a lush, private garden full of native plants. Enter the home through the custom-made bullseye front door into the light-filled living room with a restored hearth comprised of exposed old Charleston brick. This room also features a custom-mounted flat screen TV discreetly hidden in the cabinetry to the left of the fireplace. Continue to the creatively engineered kitchen with a copper sink and fixtures, custom cabinetry crafted from site-milled heart pine stock, and countertops made of honed green slate imported from Vermont. The dining room is bright and sunny overlooking the patiowhich is accessed through French doors. The patio sits in the center of the professionally designed garden by Sheila Wertimer featuring hardscape, seasonal plantings and custom lighting. On the second floor, the master suite offers a gas fireplace, en suite bath and a walk-in closet. Also on this level is a sitting room designed by Eddie Fava and constructed by premier local contractor Jimmy Tupper. It is flooded with light and a spectacular view of the gardens below. The third floor boasts a charming guest suite with dormer shutters, window seats, painted floors and a furnished bathroom with walk-in closet. The window treatments, light fixtures and furnishings were carefully selected by the owner and her interior designer. The property is just a short walk from the Gaillard Center Opera and Theater Hall, around the corner from Ansonborough Field and Park, and steps to the shopping and dining on King Street and Market Street.
