Overview

The Sarah Daniell Lawrence House, circa 1790, was built on this lot for the benefit of Robert Daniell's wife and daughters as specified in his will in 1787. The building was apparently completed before his death. Sarah Daniell Lawrence received this house and land by purchase from the estate of her father in 1791. The home directly faces George Street and its period can be deduced from the wide, beaded weatherboard siding and the unusual Palladian windows on each gable of the attic story. Ascending the front steps, you will be greeted by the impressive central hall, flanked on the left by the sun-lit formal dining room and on the right by an elegant living room with gas fireplace. Set off the dining room is an updated eat-in kitchen with gas range, double stacked ovens, prep sink andplenty of cabinet and counter space. Completing the first floor is a full bathroom and the family room with built-in bookcases. The master suite is located on the second floor with an en-suite bathroom, walk-in closet and connecting dressing room, currently used as a guest room. Also on this story is a superb study with fireplace and another guest bedroom and full bathroom. The home's stunning interior continues to the third floor, occupied by two cozy rooms that could serve as additional guest bedrooms or studio space. The back porch off the first floor kitchen overlooks the expansive backyard and garden, surrounded by a private wall, making this a serene setting for cool fall days and warm summer months. The driveway occupies up to five cars and is currently used as a patio space, perfect for entertaining. There is indoor and outdoor access to the basement level, offering endless storage possibilities. 8 George Street is perfectly located in the heart of Charleston's Ansonborough neighborhood, just a block away from King Street shopping, neighborhood restaurants and the new Gaillard Center. There is an Exterior Easement with the Historic Charleston Foundation.
