Property Description
Welcome to 81 Gordon Street, a beautifully restored Craftsman in the heart of desirable Wagener Terrace. Artfully renovated and restored, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home thoughtfully blends 1930s character with modern comfort and exceptional craftsmanship.Set on a spacious corner lot with a fully fenced yard, a gorgeous mahogany front door welcomes you into a warm and natural light-filled family room with a wood-burning fireplace. Original character is beautifully complemented by exposed brick chimneys, period-inspired picture molding, and an extraordinary collection of reclaimed Charleston materials. The custom kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring reclaimed white oak floors, salvaged timber beams, custom cabinetry, pecan shelving, and other one-of-a-kind architectural details.The spacious primary suite offers a walk-in closet, full-size stacked laundry, and a beautifully appointed Craftsman-style bath with double vanity, large walk-in shower, and heated towel warmer. Two additional bedrooms share the hall bath, while a versatile second-floor bonus room provides space for an office, second living area, playroom, or could be used as a 5th bedroom. The detached garage was rebuilt to include a fourth bedroom and full bath above, offering a wonderful private guest suite or flexible additional living space. Front and rear covered porches further enhance the home's Southern charm and outdoor living. Numerous improvements include new landscaping, updated plumbing and electrical, energy-efficient replacement windows, spray foam attic insulation, solar attic ventilation, and enhanced structural elements. Just blocks from Hampton Park and minutes from downtown Charleston, the Medical District, neighborhood restaurants, and area beaches, 81 Gordon Street offers a rare combination of character, craftsmanship, flexibility, and location.
