Property Description
Sited on a spacious 0.41 acre corner lot on South George Street in the South Charles Town Historic District this Colonial Revival/Italianate house circa 1869 was known as the Woman's Club. In 1946 the property was bequeathed by Mary Esta Burton Hilleary to be used as a museum for Charles Town and a walk in safe was built on the first level. Meticulously and fully renovated in 2018 by the current owners, the infrastructure was upgraded with new electrical, plumbing, heat pumps, hot water tank, plumbing fixtures and kitchen. Original random width wood flooring, moldings, windows and architectural details were retained and restored seamlessly blending historical with contemporary amenities. The front facade welcomes you with the full columned front porch, original double-hung windows and a center front attic gable. Entering the center foyer you are greeted with 9 ft.+ ceilings, original wood floors and moldings that display the graciousness of the home. The main level offers spacious rooms with two fully restored wood burning fireplaces and the four floor to ceiling original Italianate windows in the living room and the family room. To the left of the foyer is the living room and to the right is the open plan kitchen, dining area and family room with the areas defined by architectural elements. A new light filled kitchen shines with white cabinets, granite countertops and an island with bar seating. Random width wood floors, original moldings and Italianate style windows continue throughout the second level. The large master bedroom suite includes the third fully restored wood burning fireplace, a bright contemporary master bathroom with laundry area, adjacent sitting room or office and access to the lovely upper level porch overlooking the rear yard. The two guest bedrooms, a new full bath and enclosed stairs to the attic are also located off the second level foyer. The large unfinished attic with wood floors, windows and three defined areas offers additional space for storage or refinishing. The lower level porch off of the kitchen leads to the back yard and the outside entrance to the unfinished basement with stone walls, non-functional fireplace, concrete floor and new windows. The fully fenced yard and private parking off the alley complete this striking 19th century home listed on the National Register of Historic Places located within walking distance to downtown Charles Town.
