Welcome to 5 Short Street. This historic home, circa 1899, is located on a quiet street that is one block long and is just a block north of Broad Street. It is just a short walk to Colonial Lake or to King Street and is a stone's throw to either the Queen Street Grocery or Burbage's Market. After entering through wrought iron gates onto its welcoming piazza, one enters the home onto an entry area with formal living rooms and dining rooms on either side. The thoughtfully planned kitchen has marble countertops that are complimented by stainless steel appliances. The back of the kitchen flows into the den along the back of the home. On the second level, there are two guest bedrooms with a hallway bathroom, as well as the primary suite and access to the second piazza.The primary suite is spacious, as is the walk-in closet, which was professionally designed. The primary bathroom is well appointed with both a shower and separate bathtub. The exterior of the property has gated off-street parking and a charming entertaining space for outdoor cooking and dining. Surrounded by mature plantings, this area has been one of the favorite spots of the current owners. Other noteworthy attributes of this Carolopolis Award-winning home include tall ceilings and dentil molding. Wood floors are found throughout. A stylish gas fireplace is located in the formal living room and sound is wired for both inside and out.
