52 hasell street

Welcome to 52 Hasell Street, a classic brick Charleston single home on a spacious 0.16-acre lot in the historic Ansonborough neighborhood. Built around 1843, this 4,530-square-foot property includes five bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, and rare off-street parking. Even rarer - it also features a fully furnished, licensed bed-and-breakfast carriage house, offering potential for rental income or flexible guest accommodations. With its striking brick exterior, wider-than-usual footprint, and established B&B, this property presents a unique opportunity. Step onto the traditional double piazza and enter a home filled with warm architectural details. Inside, you are welcomed by soaring ceilings, grand rooms, original hardwood floors, and large windows that fill the space with natural light. The main level includes a spacious living room and dining room, leading into a kitchen with a custom vaulted ceiling. The kitchen also features an exposed brick butler's pantry and a separate laundry area for added convenience. On the second floor, a comfortable family room is set across the hall from a large primary suite, complete with a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom. The third floor offers two well-sized guest rooms that share a bathroom, perfect for a family or guests. Outside, a private Charleston garden connects to the historic carriage house. Operating as a licensed bed-and-breakfast for years, this guest house provides the option to continue the business or utilize it as additional living space. Another great feature is that this home is located in an X flood zone, so flood insurance is not required. The piazza has a painted metal roof, and the main house roof was entirely rebuilt with copper in 1990. Just a short walk from King Street, this home is close to some of Charleston's best shopping and dining. The current owners have taken great care of the property, and while it is move-in ready, it also offers an opportunity for the next owner's personal touches. There is even potential to expand into the basement area, which previously served as a doctor's office. With its rich history, spacious layout, and prime location, 52 Hasell Street is truly a rare find.
