Property Description
The home spans four bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms, each blending elegance with function. The second-floor primary suite has been completely redesigned to offer walk-in closets, a freestanding tub, and a private water closetall accessed through a preserved historic fenestration, allowing original paneling and casework to remain untouched. On the third floor, previously unsympathetic alterations were reversed to restore the natural rhythm of the space, aligning rooms with original windows and fireplaces. A second bathroom was structurally reinforced and updated with modern finishes, while a mid century attic stair was removed to uncover hidden piazza windows. This restoration allowed the primary stair to extend to a new fourth-floor bedroom and bath, now fully integrated into the home.
Throughout, the house features heart pine floors, soaring ceilings, and original cypress panelingtimeless details that evoke its storied past. Outside, the double piazzas offer peaceful retreats ideal for entertaining or enjoying Charleston's historic ambiance.
This home is more than just a residenceit is a stewardship of one of the city's architectural treasures. Just steps from renowned dining, shops, and cultural landmarks, the Jacob Motte House offers the rare opportunity to live at the crossroads of preservation and modern luxury.
