Welcome to 143 Beaufain St, located in historic downtown Charleston, SC. This stunning home, built in 2000, located within a block of the Ashley River and just north of Broad St, has the style and grandeur of an older historic home with all the comforts and modern conveniences of a new construction. Surrounded by brick columns and antique iron fence 143 Beaufain welcomes you with a large wraparound porch, fronting both Barre St and Beaufain. The foyer invites you into the impressive formal areas of the home with large rooms, ten foot ceilings, exquisite cherry and oak floors, warm neutral tones, custom chandeliers, and heavy period crown moldings throughout. A unique double-sided fireplace separates the living room and dining room. The gorgeous open kitchen has custom cabinets, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a large island with a Jennair cooktop/grill, double ovens and convection microwave, a breakfast area, and a dumbwaiter to garage level. Adjoining the kitchen is a spacious family room with fireplace and built-ins. There is an awesome multimedia room providing the full cinema experience with a large screen, built in speakers and digital projector and theatre seating. There is a full bath on this floor as well in the event you wanted to make the media room another bedroom. In addition to the main staircase there is a unique spiral back staircase to the second floor. The second floor features two guest bedrooms, with ample closet space, that share a charming bath. Each has access to a large covered porch. The majority of the second floor is the elegant master suite with a vaulted 20-foot ceiling, fireplace, huge master closet, an incredible master bath with dual vanity, a Jacuzzi tub and a marble and glass enclosed rain shower. There are porches and piazzas off each floor offering views of the Ashley River. There is another spiral staircase leading to a private loft (with a wet bar and half bath) that is perfect as a home office, workout area, sleeping loft, etc. There is a secluded terrace off of the loft with breathtaking views over the Ashley River. Unique to downtown, this home has a garage that can accommodate four or more cars, off street parking as well and plenty of storage. The gated driveway off of Barre St makes for easy access. This home has been beautifully maintained and it shows. The heating and air systems are brand new and the exterior was recently power washed and professionally painted. Although this home is owner occupied, the owners will make it easy to show, by appointment.
