Set well off Ashley Avenue, this detached 3 BR 1860s brick carriage house is the rare downtown find that answers to no one -- freestanding, private, full of character, and wrapped by two walled courtyards of its own. One of seven residences in the historic Beauregard House regime, with two coveted off-street parking spaces.Those courtyards were designed by landscape architect Robert Chesnut and featured in Southern Living. Stone fountains, a bluestone terrace, and tall antique brick walls turn 400+ SF into a genuine outdoor room. Morning coffee, dinner under the sky, a drink before you head out -- it earns its keep year-round.Inside: taller ceiling heights you almost never see in a historic carriage house, a fireplace anchoring the living room, a kitchen that opens to the keeping room.with its own walled courtyard, and light pouring in all day. Three bedrooms and two and a half baths over two floors, all behind beautiful antique brick. New windows and a new slate roof -- the expensive work is already done. Enjoy it exactly as it stands, or take the chance to reimagine the space and make it your own. Restaurants and coffee shops a few blocks over, King Street shopping just beyond, MUSC and Roper a few minutes away. Stately from the street, easy and welcoming once you're through the gate.
