  Set on one of the most historic thoroughfares in Charleston, 41 Meeting Street is a stylish example of Charleston’s late Victorian economic and architectural revival. Just down the street from the famed mansions of Nathaniel Russell and William Bull, the handsome six-bedroom weatherboard construction is built in the single house style, but modified to include a front foyer entrance. The traditional single house is entered from the side porch, or piazza, by way of a central entrance hall that divides each floor. In this 1906 version, the front foyer entrance protects the privacy of the piazza and offers a more natural transition among double parlor interior rooms.

  Restored with meticulous care with a graceful garden areas in front and back and an adjoining patio and carriage house, 41 Meeting Street was chosen as the Charleston Symphony Designer Showhouse in 2005. The elegant interior features exquisite hardwood flooring, rich moldings, and Adamesque mantels, while the charming exterior includes historic nine-over-nine windows, wrought iron fence and handrails, as well as a breath-taking doorway with triangular pediment and fanlight that was a hallmark of Charleston’s beauty.

  The classic south piazza arrangement fills the house with natural light and garden breezes during Charleston’s magnificent spring and fall growing seasons. The first floor living and sitting rooms are adjacent to the spacious dining room, which leads to a modern gourmet kitchen, complete with custom cabinetry and a center island bar with pewter counter top. A wrap-around breakfast area overlooks the private rear garden for the ultimate in relaxation while enjoying blooms and song birds.
