Built in 1901

Welcome to this exquisite Sullivan's Island home, a beautifully preserved historic two-story retreat. The home holds a unique place in history as the largest and most elaborate surviving structure of officers at Fort Moultrie. Originally serving as the Base Commandant's Quarters, its significance deepened during World War II when it became the residence of the chief of staff, George C. Marshall. Bearing witness to pivotal moments in history, the house later underwent a transformation, being sold and converted into a private residence.Built in 1901, with 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, this gem invites you into a world of history, sophistication and charm. French doors gracefully open onto the expansive wrap-around porches, establishing a seamless connection between indoorand outdoor living. The copper and slate roof give the home a distinctive attribute, while the inviting in-ground pool beckons for relaxation and entertainment.

As you step inside, the historic walls of this home cradle large, gracious rooms adorned with 9+ foot ceilings throughout. The well-equipped renovated kitchen boasts high-end appliances, including a dishwasher, electric ovens, and gas stove, creating a chef's haven for culinary enthusiasts. The expansive kitchen island not only provides ample space for culinary endeavors but also offers seamless access to and captivating views of the outdoor pool, making it a central hub for both culinary creativity and social gatherings.

Admire the craftsmanship and character that define each space, from the unique original tin printed ceilings to the multiple fireplaces and the tastefully designed rooms, including the eat-in-kitchen, family, formal living, foyer, study, and more.

The primary bathroom is a sanctuary in itself, featuring walnut walls, luxurious marble floor, and a rejuvenating wet sauna. A spacious walk-in closet adds practical elegance to the primary suite, ensuring ample storage for your wardrobe.

Today, this home stands not only as a testament to its storied past but also as a cherished residence. As you immerse yourself in the history and charm of this traditional masterpiece, you can enjoy the modern amenities that make it a true sanctuary.
