Quick facts
About this home
Welcome to 563 Rutledge Avenue, a classic Charleston single reimagined as a fully renovated, turnkey duplex, set between the Westside and Hampton Park Terrace on the upper peninsula. One of the most thoughtfully renovated duplexes downtown under $1.5M, it offers rare quality and value on the peninsula. Just steps from 60-acre Hampton Park, this 2,011 SF property pairs early 20th century character with modern systems and finishes, and offers true flexibility: live in one unit and let the other help offset your mortgage, or hold both as an income property.Each unit features two bedrooms and one full bath, with kitchens and baths finished to the same elevated standard. (See more)White oak floors, exposed brick dual fireplaces, and crown moulding run throughout, while gothic tracery bay windows draw natural light deep into the main living space. The renovation goes well beyond the surface. Completed work includes new subfloor and joists on the first floor, a full electrical rewire with new panels, all new plumbing, two new HVAC units with all new ductwork, spray foam insulation on the ground floor and in the attic, a resealed roof coating, and new Hardie siding on the right side of the home. The result is historic charm backed by updated systems from the ground up. Outside, a large backyard and deck set the scene for morning coffee, dinner outdoors, or entertaining under the Lowcountry sky. Two off-street parking spaces add a convenience that is hard to find downtown. Step outside and the neighborhood is yours to walk. Grab coffee and a breakfast sandwich at Odd Duck Market, then stroll the gardens at Hampton Park. Sightsee, Huriyali Gardens, Renzo, Berkeley's, and Park & Grove are all close by, with Kultura and Nook just south on Rutledge and Leon's Oyster Shop, Little Jack's Tavern, Chubby Fish, and Melfi's over on upper King. The Citadel, Riley Park, MUSC, and the heart of downtown are all within easy reach. Historic character, thoughtful updates, and a flexible floor plan in one of downtown's most walkable pockets.
