22 Meeting Street

Description

Located in the most desirable section of lower Meeting Street, this charming South of Broad home is privately tucked away and provides a warm welcome with a wrought iron gate, herringbone brick path and lovely garden. Double hung porches showcase a gorgeous view of the ''Three Sisters'' houses located directly across the street. This historic home was built in 1810 with a traditional floor plan. Upon entering, the central foyer separates the formal living and dining rooms. Each space boasts beautiful hardwood floors, substantial dentil and crown moldings, a fireplace and several large windows. Both formal rooms are light-filled and have wonderful views of the front piazza and garden. A cozy nook is located behind the living room and can be used as a small study or reading room. The kitchen provides floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, a built-in bar for entertaining and plenty of storage. Upstairs, you will find two bedrooms, two full baths, multiple closets and a small study with built-in bookshelves. This space could be easily reconfigured to create a spacious owner's suite. The second-floor rooms have hardwood flooring, intricate moldings and a fireplace. The porch is easily accessible by both bedrooms and offers a beautiful view of Meeting Street and live oak trees. There are two additional bedrooms on the third floor with dormer ceilings and a shared bath. A detached one-car garage provides off-street parking and three points of entry. A large basement is a bonus to the property and was previously used as a workroom but would make a great wine cellar with storage. It is easily accessible from the back courtyard off Atlantic Street. 22 Meeting Street has been lovingly maintained by the same family for over 80 years. This prime location is only one block from White Point Garden and High Battery. Enjoy living just steps away from renowned restaurants, wonderful shops, museums and galleries. This is an incredible opportunity for a historic minded preservationist to restore and update this wonderful property.
