The Michelmann-Michel House, circa 1855, is a significant, historical residence located in one of Charleston's most sought after neighborhoods- Cannonborough-Elliotborough. The Elliotborough neighborhood is a short walk to King Street and has become a popular destination for some of the city's best restuarants- Chubby Fish, Vern's, Sorghum & Salt, Malagon, and Chez Nous, to name just a few! This home is located within walking distance to The College of Charleston, as well.This two bedroom, two bathroom cottage style home has been thoughtfully updated with modern amenities while preserving the historical significance of the property. In 2017, the current owners updated the plumbing, electrical, and HVAC.The kitchen was renovated in 2017 to include beautiful marble countertops, stainless steel appliances and a generous amount of cabinetry for storage. Both bedrooms are located on the second floor and offer generously sized closets. The large upstairs bathroom boasts beautiful marble tile and marble countertops. There is a designated laundry room also located on the second floor.
The well manicured and spacious back yard is just another amazing feature of this home! The generous lot size provides off street parking along with allowing for a second structure to be built on the property- with approval from Historic Charleston Foundation and BAR. Any future improvements or additions would need to go through Historic Charleston Foundation for approval prior to going in front of the City and BAR.
