Description : This Grove Street address places you in one of Wagener Terrace's most desirable spots--steps from Hampton Park and a short golf cart ride to downtown dining.

This Grove Street address places you in one of Wagener Terrace's most desirable spots--steps from Hampton Park and a short golf cart ride to downtown dining. The property spans a spacious .17-acre lot and a half, a rare find in this neighborhood. Close enough to enjoy, yet removed from the downtown rush, it also sits on high ground and does not require flood insurance. The house itself, a 1955 mid-century modern, carries its history with an ease that feels current. A three-sided fireplace anchors the living spaces, while natural light pours through carefully sourced double-glazed casement windows chosen to replicate the originals. Three sets of French doors swing open to the deck and pool, blurring the edge between indoors and out. The kitchen is open to the main living area,equipped with Bosch appliances and a breakfast nook overlooking the backyard. Upstairs, the primary suite takes on the role of retreat. There is room to breathe, space to relax, and even a private laundry area. Two guest bedrooms line the hall, while downstairs a flexible room with a full bath offers its own possibilities- an office, a den, or a bedroom tucked conveniently on the first floor. Behind the walls, the hard work has already been done. Within the past decade, the roof, wiring, plumbing fixtures, and HVAC were all replaced, with spray-foam insulation added in the attic. More recent upgrades brought the systems fully current: a fully encapsulated crawlspace with dehumidifier, brand-new Trane HVAC units, updated ductwork upstairs, LG washer and dryer, Visual Comfort lighting, new fencing, and a full interior repaint. Out back, the yard takes on the feeling of a private garden. Mature hedges frame the heated pool, newly planted trees add shade and scale, and the lawn stretches wide enough for gatherings or play. The entire rear is enclosed with fencing and a gated entry, ensuring privacy from every angle. Even the front lawn is designed as usable space, a crisp foreground to the house with its geometric boxwoods and vertical lines of Italian cypress. For those who imagine more, plans drawn by Beau Clowney accompany the sale. His vision adds a winged addition with a garage and upstairs primary suite, as well as a pool house- modern touches that expand the home while honoring its original lines. This is not just a house in Wagener Terrace. It is a rare balance of mid-century character and modern updates, a property ready for immediate living, and a lifestyle centered on neighborhood energy, private retreat, and the ease of Charleston at your doorstep.
