Seldom does a home with such a quality restoration become available. Pristine, private estate just a short walk to Upper King Street and it's world class restaurants, distinctive shops and galleries. Known as the Sanders House, this home was built between 1841 and 1843 by the Sanders Brothers who were accomplished brick masons. It was completely restored in 2001 and the current owners have added state of the art systems, custom exterior lighting, lush landscaping and pool designed by Italian artisans. The dependency was incorporated into the main house by a hyphen in 1870 and contains two large era appropriate fireplaces and houses a custom engineered and built German Bulthaup kitchen that opens onto a lovely brick terrace and the pool beyond. The formal rooms are filled with sunlight and boast original plaster medallions. The dining room has beautiful tongue and groove paneled walls and ceiling with wooden border strips that meet at forty five degree angles. It also includes a cistern under the floor that could be a wonderful wine cellar. The front of the house features a master suite on the second floor with beautiful bath, separate walk in closet and private porch. The guest suite has a charming sitting room with a small private porch and full bath. The third floor has a dormer bedroom, small sitting area and full bath. Above the kitchen there are two charming bedrooms with beamed ceilings and a full attic above. This unique and magical property has been the star of the Fall Preservation Society's Radcliffeborough tours for the past 4 years and was highlighted in the September 2011 issue of Charleston Magazine. It is scheduled to be featured in the spring issues of Elle Decor and Vogue magazines, testimony to its owners loving and meticulous dedication to this property.
