Fabulous Charleston single with a captivating balance of airy, elegant space and historic character. 103 Alexander is on a quiet block just steps from Starbucks, the library, museums, Farmer's Market, Gaillard, and hip Upper King. The original charm is still there - heartpine floors, fireplaces now with gas logs, handsome staircase, high ceilings, crown molding, and bookcases. The exterior was just completed with a new roof, new piers, and a complete rebuild of double piazzas including columns, Ipe decking... the works! This is absolutely beautiful craftsmanship that will last. Sunroom/breakfast room and cozy den are adjacent to the kitchen. Downstairs guest suite features a private entrance from the piazza. Second floor master bedroom suite includes a spacious dressing room, bathroom and laundry room. It opens to the wide piazza on one side and on the other to a private sundeck overlooking the walled courtyard garden. Slate and brick gated parking. Picket fenced storage area for mechanicals and recycling bins. New HVAC, Rinnai, Security System and roof. Built in 1880 but made for today with clean lines, efficient layout, and 'walk everywhere' location.
