Description

One of Mount Pleasant’s most admired historic homes will soon be available for its next owner. The Chandler-Jackson House is an iconic Washington Avenue landmark. From the moment you arrive, the home embraces you with its distinct charm, beginning with the expansive wrap-around front porch and covered balconies. The gorgeous original lead-glass windows with decorative upper sashes add character while filling the interior with so much natural light. The interior vintage shutters add warmth and coziness, complementing the rich architectural history throughout. The receiving room is especially inviting, featuring high ceilings, original hardwood floors, and a Rumsford (originally coal-burning) fireplace and two cute window seats on each side of the fireplace, perfect for reading or simply enjoying the ambiance. To the left and through the pocket doors lies the formal living room once used as the gathering space where guests would enjoy afternoon tea and conversation. The kitchen blends charm with modern convenience, offering hardwood flooring, abundant cabinetry, a gas cooktop, butcher-block countertops, and new stainless steel KitchenAid double ovens and matching refrigerator. Upstairs, all three of the bedrooms and the laundry room will be found making it convenient for doing laundry. The spacious primary suite includes a cozy fireplace and a private balcony, while one of the additional bedrooms features a bump-out space ideal for an office, nursery, or hideaway. Situated on more than half an acre lot with beautiful mature trees,walkable to town, the property is just minutes from downtown shopping, local festivals, and the beloved “music on the porch” for those fun community get togethers. The fenced backyard provides a safe and spacious area for children or pets to enjoy. Sellers are offering a $20,000 exterior paint allowance and a two-year home warranty with an acceptable offer. Sellers have not used the fireplaces and will require inspections before use.
