Overview
Offered mostly furnished with every piece hand-selected by the acclaimed design team at Basic Projects, this restored 1880 Charleston Single on Percy Street is truly move-in ready. Known for their work featured in Architectural Digest, Vogue, and The New York Times, Basic Projects partnered with master craftsmen at Flyway in a 2015 full gut renovation--installing all new wiring, plumbing, and mechanical systems while preserving the home's historic soul. A brand-new metal roof was added in 2021, ensuring both durability and peace of mind. Spanning 1,766 square feet with three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, the home feels fresh out of the pages of a design magazine. Original heart pine floors, exposed ceiling beams, and oversized four-pane windows create a light-filled, airy atmosphere. Multiple preserved brick fireplaces add warmth and character, while the generous ceiling heights enhance the sense of space. The kitchen is a showpiece, featuring a marble island, surrounding butcher block countertops, custom cabinetry, open shelving, a large gas range, and designer lighting - opening directly onto the piazza through French doors for effortless indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs, the bedrooms are bright and inviting, with spa-like baths featuring patterned tile floors, a walk-in glass shower, and a deep soaking tub. Every detail has been carefully considered for both style and comfort. The outdoor living spaces are equally impressive - double piazzas, a secluded brick courtyard, and a lush private garden create a serene retreat. The deep, wide driveway offers parking for up to three cars, and the property sits on high ground where flood insurance is not required.Located within the City of Charleston's short-term rental overlay, 14 Percy Street is not eligible for a standard short-term rental license but may qualify as a bed-and-breakfast if it is the owner's primary residence, occupied at least 183 days per year, with a portion reserved for the owner's private use. The owner is not required to be on site during guest stays. The layout makes this very workable, as the upstairs primary suite at the rear of the second floor could serve as the owner's space, leaving two bedrooms, one bath, and a washer/dryer in the common area for guests - and also the rest of the house for their use. With approval from the City of Charleston, the property could become an appealing income-producing residence. Buyer to confirm all requirements with the city as part of their due diligence.Located just steps from some of the best dining in the Southeast, this home works beautifully as a full-time residence, an income-producing B&B with city approval, or a lock-and-leave pied--terre. Rarely does a property of this caliber, design pedigree, and turnkey condition come to market in downtown Charleston.
