79 Hester

Step into timeless Charleston living at 79 Hester Street -- a fully reimagined downtown retreat that blends historic charm with modern luxury. Taken down to the studs and thoughtfully rebuilt, this 2,135 sq. ft. home plus detached 475 sq. ft. guest suite is the rare combination of historic character, new construction quality, and unmatched location.The main house offers 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, anchored by wide-plank European oak-style flooring and custom cabinetry throughout. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen pairs beauty and function with a quartz waterfall island (complete with cordless charging inlay), white oak cabinetry, a GE Café double range + hood, Thermador French door refrigerator, paneled Bosch dishwasher, XO wine cooler, and a full butler's pantry. The primary suite rivals a boutique hotel with its black quartz dual vanity, custom white oak cabinetry, 32.5 sq. ft. shower, and 60-inch Gateway soaking tub. Additional bathrooms impress with Cristallo quartz, floating backlit vanities, and designer fixtures. Dual porches and a gas fireplace create inviting gathering spaces, while curated touches, from built-in shelving and shiplap walls to a preserved 1955 original window, speak to the home's history. Behind the main house, the detached guest suite offers a private haven with a full bath, laundry, and its own gas lanterns, ideal for extended family, visitors, or rental income. Modern conveniences include spray-foam insulation, a dehumidifier system, irrigation landscaping, and custom closets throughout. Outside, the fenced yard and gas lanterns complete the quintessential Charleston aesthetic. Located in the heart of Charleston's peninsula, 79 Hester Street delivers a rare turnkey opportunity: a fully reimagined historic home with designer finishes, luxury appliances, and thoughtful details in every corner.
