Property Description
Welcome to your own slice of Lowcountry magic in one of the most storied spots in Mount Pleasant. Tucked along the horseshoe-shaped street of Pierates Cruz--once home to the town's very first tourist attraction--this stately brick beauty offers sweeping Charleston Harbor views and a private backyard oasis you may never want to leave.Pierates Cruz wasn't always a quiet residential street. In 1928, a couple from Massachusetts purchased the property and transformed it into a botanical wonderland, designing seven distinct themed gardens that drew visitors from near and far. The gardens thrived as a beloved attraction until the late 1950s, when the land was thoughtfully divided into just 13 residential lots. Today, the charm and history remain, wrapped in lush landscaping and Old Villagecharacter. Step inside to find traditional living spaces that flow effortlessly throughout the first floor. To the left of the entry, a formal sitting room leads into the chef's kitchen, complete with marble counters, a center island, and high-end stainless appliances. The kitchen opens to a light-filled family room with panoramic Harbor viewsperfect for watching shrimp boats glide toward Shem Creek and Alhambra Hall. To the right of the hall, the great room features built-in bookshelves, a cozy gas fireplace, and plenty of space for gatherings. An additional room, currently serving as both an office and dining area, offers flexibility to suit your lifestyle.
Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private retreat, with its own fireplace, custom built-ins, walk-in closet, and spa-like en-suite. French doors open to the second-floor screened porch, where sunset views over the Harbor will take your breath away. Two guest rooms share a full bath, while a fourth bedroomwith its own en-suitehas separate access via the living room stairwell and connects to the screened porch.
Outside, the fenced backyard is a true oasis, with lush landscaping, a private deck, and a heated saltwater pool for year-round enjoyment. A whole-house indoor/outdoor Sonos system and all-new plumbing add comfort and convenience.
From here, you can walk or bike to Alhambra Hall, the Pitt Street Bridge, neighborhood tennis courts, Shem Creek, and the charming shops and restaurants along Pitt Street. With a story as rich as its surroundings, this Pierates Cruz home offers more than a place to liveit's a piece of Mount Pleasant history wrapped in timeless Lowcountry beauty.
