Overview

Description

The Harth-Macbeth House represents South of Broad living at its finest. Sitting on a corner lot on Lower Legare Street, this meticulously maintained c. 1817 estate offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Charleston history. A beautifully manicured garden sits just in between the estate and its neighbor, offering no shortage of natural light through each of the lovely nine over nine windows. Two magnificent porches overlook the always-blooming garden, perfect for an afternoon read on a warm, breezy day. The home has an apartment in the rear of the building, which could easily be incorporated into the main house if desired. Close to everything Historic Downtown Charleston has to offer, this estate is within walking distance to many of the city’s best restaurants, galleries, and shopping.
