Listing Details

In a quiet section of Charleston's South of Broad neighborhood, 14 Savage Street is the largest, most private parcel on the street. Built soon after the Victorian period of the late 19th century, this 1925 house is a fine example of the classic American traditional so easily adapted for today's lifestyle. Less opulent than earlier houses, 14 Savage is solid, dignified, and built for efficiency to the ideal size for easy management. The hallmarks of the street faade are the huge front porch, wide front steps, second floor porch, and hipped metal roof with a large central dormer that makes third floor expansion an option. Additional exterior architectural features of exposed rafters, dentil molding and paneled columns complement the strong, handsome design. Grand, open flow begins at the eansive entrance hall and continues throughout. Every room is beautifully proportioned and filled with natural light from large windows on all sides. It is the breadth and depth of the property that makes 14 Savage so special. On one side behind Phillip Simmons gates, there is an extravagant amount of space for parking. At the rear of the property is a two car garage of soaring ceiling height with fabulous potential as a pool or guest house. Double screened porches overlook the large, luxuriously private garden. At the corner is Charleston landmark Burbage's Corner Store. Within a few blocks are Charleston's Battery, Colonial Lake, the marina, tennis courts, King Street
