Harleston Village dream home! This unicorn property is a short walk to Cannon Park or Colonial Lake and sits at the front of nearly a quarter of an acre secret garden with a full size in-ground diamond polished Hydrazzo pool complete with outdoor dining room, lounge areas, built in gravel firepit and auxiliary pool guest house! The main home has been lovingly updated while preserving historical charm. Enter through the bright foyer to be greeted by the gold leaf sculpture sitting atop the banister post. Step into the color drenched living room where a striking gas fireplace serves as the focal point, beautifully crowned with grasscloth custom paper ceiling. Fix yourself a drink at the inviting custom-built bar, or savor a meal in the bright gourmet kitchen, featuring Quartz ...countertops and top of the line appliances.
Invite your friends and family to dinner with a formal dining room large enough to include everyone on your guest list. Enjoy an aperitif or coffee in the screened porch lit by gaslight and dripping outside in fragrant wisteria, complete with doggie door for easy access to the fenced in yard. The jewel box powder room on the first floor features scalamandre wallpaper and custom sink. Make your way upstairs to retire to the primary bedroom with custom wallpaper and window treatments, a retractable projector and screen and ascend the hidden stairs to find an enormous closet and sitting area to get ready for a night out.
The two additional guest rooms all feature custom window treatments, wallpaper and lighting and share a dual access bathroom. The backyard is a true oasis perfect for entertaining. Lush with banana trees, hedges, azaleas and camellias, it offers a serene retreat. Equipped with a mosquito misting system, you can relax outdoors year-round. The soothing sound of the fountain's spray masks the city noise as it cascades into the heated pool, which is effortless controlled via app. Have friends stay for the weekend in the guest pool house, or use it as an exercise room, take a work call from the guest house office or admire the gaslights from a seat on the porch. This house is a wonderland in the heart of the city- allowing you to walk, bike, or golf cart most places on the peninsula.
