This week Charleston lost 52 Cooper Street, a historic Eastside church that had been deemed unsafe.

At the same time, I listed 36 Mary Street, the Thomas Ryan House in Wraggborough.

The clipping in this photo is from 1978, when Historic Charleston Foundation stepped in and chose restoration over demolition.

Nearly 50 years later, 36 Mary is still here.

That is why preservation matters. Once these buildings are gone, we do not get them back.

Where do you think Charleston should draw the line between redevelopment and preservation?

If you are looking for a piece of Charleston history, 36 Mary Street is now available. Message me to schedule a showing.

Historic character. An extraordinary downtown lot. More possibilities than you’d ever imagine from the street.

Coming soon in Wraggborough.

Most Daniel Island homes give you a great house.

This one gives you a great house — and a whole separate apartment for everyone else.

Double front porches. Classic Lowcountry style. A maintenance-free backyard with a custom putting green that gets used to practice your short game.

Then above the garage — a fully self-contained apartment.
Bedroom, full kitchen, living area, bathroom, laundry, and its own private entrance. Not a studio. Not a bonus room. A complete living space that has nothing to do with the main house.

Au pair. Parents. College kids. Family who visits enough that a hotel stopped making sense years ago.

It's not just a great home. It's a great home with a whole separate life attached to it.

Daniel Island. Top-rated schools. 15 minutes to downtown Charleston.

Park your car in your own dedicated spot and don't move it until Monday.

That's the life at 20 Charlestowne Court — tucked at the quiet corner of Queen and Logan Streets, steps from King Street, the Battery, and everything that makes Charleston magical.

If you’ve toured new construction lately… you already know the problem.

A lot of it looks good online.
Very little of it actually lives well.

747 Hill St is different.

• A floorplan that flows the way you actually live (not just staged for photos)
• Designed by Hudson Cooper with intention behind every space
• Elevated finishes that feel custom—not pulled from a builder catalog
• Seamless indoor/outdoor setup that works year-round in the Charleston area

It’s the kind of home that’s hard to explain… but obvious the second you walk in.

And in Mount Pleasant right now, that’s not something you see every day.

Mount Pleasant reality check 👇

I searched all closed sales over the past 3 years with a sales price up to $900K looking for:
• 5 bedrooms
• 2,800+ sq ft
• In-ground pool

Result? ONE.

Which is exactly why 1309 National Drive stands out as a great value!

Real estate has a funny way of connecting dots & reminding you how small the world really is.

A college friend calls from across the country…

Next thing you know I am trekking to Goat Island armed with a screw driver learning how to change out locks & brainstorming how to empty a house full of vintage treasures.

🏡 Ballam Oaks: 18 New Homes Still Sitting Empty 🏡

If you’ve driven down John Ballam Road (just off 6 Mile Rd) lately, you’ve probably noticed the 2 rows of freshly built houses with… no one living in them. Here’s the scoop:

-The land ties back to the Ballam family dating to the 1890s.

-A lawsuit over whether John Ballam Road is public or private has stalled the entire neighborhood.

-Until it’s sorted out, 18 completed homes sit vacant — buyers in limbo, developers in court.

This is one of those “only in Mount Pleasant” stories where history, development, and legal red tape all collide. Clearly this is one of the nicest "ghost towns" I have seen!

Curious — would you take the risk and buy into a neighborhood with this kind of cloud over it? Or steer clear until the dust settles?
