The “White-Williman House” was built around 1840 and later altered after the earthquake of 1886. This 7,964 square foot home offers all the charm of its beginning including a beautiful entrance, cozy downstairs study, and an oversized, elegant dining room to seat a very large dinner party. Entertain lavishly in an overwhelming ballroom with handsome architectural details overlooking the beautiful gardens of Lower Legare Street, and enjoy the breezes from the Italian verandas overlooking the shaded courtyard. The home is comprised of 8 bedrooms, 5 full and 2 half baths. The carriage house, which was originally a garage, is great for overnight guests. This carriage house could possibly be altered to accommodate additional garden or parking. Many renovations have already been completed. The location is on one of the most desirable streets on the Peninsula and is surrounded by some of the most important and beautiful historic residences of Charleston.
