When they say ''They don't build them like they used to,'' they are talking about 680 Fort Sumter! Built with love in 1969, this is a rare opportunity to own a one owner builder's custom home, constructed with the finest mid century materials including ''clear'' walnut paneling in the den/office, solid fir 6 panel wood doors and insulated interior walls throughout for sound suppression. Downstairs is home to one of the 4 bedrooms with a full ensuite bath, formal living room, formal dining room and separate den flanking the large kitchen and breakfast room. Head through the adjacent laundry room/mud room to access the powder room, two car garage and the oversized FROG with tons of accessible attic storage. Don't miss the bonus room, perfect for storage or even a home office. Upstairs ishome to two large secondary bedrooms as well as the huge master suite with dual closets! Original hardwood floors can be found underneath the carpets in the upstairs secondary bedrooms as well as in the hallway. The home itself is impressive, but check out the .55 acre yard! High corner lot on the coveted harbor side of Lawton Bluff with a 15x30 gunite pool, recently replaced pool pump, ""Cooldeck"" and brick pool surround, diving board and pool house that is begging to be turned into a tiki bar! The well makes watering the yard and filling up the pool easy and free! Just outside the fenced in backyard is an open air structure that would be great for a small boat or a perfect spot for your annual fall oyster roast! The driveway and corner lot allow for ample parking for all your family and friends! Though dated, this home has been meticulously maintained. Move right in and add your personal touches over time or do some easy updating, either way, the bones and the vibe are superb and the location is stellar! Desirable Lawton Bluff is just one stoplight to downtown Charleston and boasts some of the island's most beautiful vistas and friendliest people!
