Overview
Within a block of White Point Garden and King Street, the Winborn Wallace Lawton House has been beautifully and meticulously restored. Prior to the construction of this grand Victorian-style home circa 1889, the property was the harbor-front site of Moreland's Wharf and later, Lawton's Dairy. The property still enjoys stunning Harbor views and cool breezes, which can be enjoyed from either of the two back piazzas or the rooftop deck. Lounge by the new sparkling saltwater pool which is surrounded by a brick walled courtyard and lush landscaping for complete privacy. Generous rooms, stunning twelve-foot coved ceilings, seven fireplaces, and gorgeous hardwood floors can be found throughout.An elegant entry, lined with original wainscoting, boasts a grand staircase and opens to the formal living room. The large formal dining room flows seamlessly into the kitchen and den which is spacious and bright. As seen in the Fall 2018 edition of Charleston Home and Design, the kitchen was remodeled in 2018, along with the rest of the home. The kitchen includes a gas range housed within the brick fireplace, marble countertops, farmhouse sink, kitchen island with secondary sink, custom pantry, and ample cabinet space. The sunny room off of the kitchen could be used as a breakfast room or reading nook. A spacious powder room completes the first floor. On the second floor, the master suite is complete with a boutique-style walk-in closet, large en-suite master bath, and access to the second floor piazza with stunning harbor views. Also on the second floor is a guest room which is currently used as a fabulous family room/study and has access to the second floor piazza. An additional guest bedroom, large zen guest bathroom with dual vanities, and laundry room complete the second floor. The third floor boasts two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom and access to the rooftop deck. Gated off-street parking for at least 3 cars is accessed via remote, keypad, or wifi link device.
