One of the most significant homes in historic downtown Charleston, the Thomas Rose House sits on a rare double lot (one-third of an acre) on beautiful Church Street. This Georgian-style home was constructed circa 1735 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. After remaining in the same family for 75 years, this important South of Broad Street home was purchased in 2017 and meticulously restored and renovated for modern living from 2017-2020 by Glenn Keyes Architects, C.B. Elrod Co., and others.The home retains many of its noteworthy historic architectural features including a full width of the house drawing room/ballroom, original cypress paneling, and arched windows and doors, while also now offering modern luxuries including an elevator, open chef's kitchen, and primary suite including a marble double shower room, soaking tub, and large walk-in dressing rooms. Custom cabinetry and top finishes and fixtures throughout create a clean blend of historic charm and modern luxury. The expansive garden retains much of its original character and separate garden "rooms"/entertaining spaces after a thorough hardscape and plantings update in 2019-20 by Wertimer + Cline Landscape Architects and Ables Landscapes, including the addition of a swimming pool and spa with a heater, chiller and keypad-controlled retractable cover. This property offers a rare sense of space and privacy in a walled estate-like setting, while being a short stroll to nearby shops, restaurants, playgrounds, parks and waterfront harbor. As part of the 2017 sale, the lot line between 59 Church Street and 57 Church Street was permanently dissolved, creating unusual open space in perpetuity and returning the property to its approximate original dimensions as Lot 61 in the Grand Modell of Charles Towne in the Province of Carolina in 1698. While nearly 300 years old, the main house boasts abundant natural light and 10' ceilings (even higher in the guest suite/home gym and in the fully equipped mother-in-law/guest suite). With over 5500 square feet, 6 bedrooms, 4 full baths and 2 half baths, and over 1100 square feet of attached piazzas, this home offers both grand entertaining spaces and a livable floor plan for a family or an owner/couple with frequent guests. Rare off-street parking for 4 cars behind a high fig vine-covered wall and remote-controlled mahogany gate provides easy access and enhances the feeling of privacy and security. Historic, elegant, luxurious, and livable, the Thomas Rose House must be seen to be fully appreciated!
About Me
What makes me different and more worthy than any other agent? Great Question…
1.) I have been in the real estate industry since 1998
2.) At 29 years old I founded a wholesale mortgage firm here in Charleston and as such being the President/CEO I was responsible for overseeing 13 team members, two branches, ALL the marketing functions, business development, training of real estate agents in financing, training of my loan officers, and making sure over $85 Million in loans got closed. Of which most were purchases. So I have REAL business knowledge and real estate is business vs an agent without that savvy business skills.
3.) I graduated from University of S.C. where my major was media arts. What’s that mean? What you are reading right now is media. Everything you see and hear is media. Everything on a computer is digital media, websites, video, photographs, and audio. I studied video production, photography/lighting courses, audio recording, and more. Even post cards, billboards, news paper are ALL media, print media. (Although it’s an antiquated media). With that knowledge your home will have the most beautiful representation to the prospective buyers, instead of most of what you see out there (poorly lit, poorly framed, bad photos and video that put off buyers).
4.) 95% OF ALL REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS BEGIN WITH THE INTERNET… PERIOD, IT IS FACT. I am a digital internet marketing expert. I consult other businesses on how to harness the internet’s power through web design, SEO (search engine optimization), content marketing, image marketing, user experience design, online ad management and more.
When listing a home for sale there isn't an exact science to it, but what is required is knowing all the facts, and that's where I come in. What's a home valuation really anyway?
Estimating the value of real property is important to a variety reasons, but for most people, determining the asking or purchase price of a property is the most useful application of real estate valuation. This article will provide an introduction to the basic concepts and methods of real estate valuation, particularly as it pertains to real estate sales.
That's all well and good, however what most home owners in Charleston SC and the U.S. really want to know is what's my property worth now if I were to try to sell it? The most common method  that 90% of listing agent use is:Â
The Sales Comparison Approach.
Value -
A main consideration in appraising is to determine a property’s value: the present worth of future benefitsarising from the ownership of real property. Unlike many consumer goods such as oil, lumber, food, etc. that are quickly used, the benefits of real property are generally realized over a long period of time. Therefore, an estimate of a property’s value must take into consideration economic and social factors, as well as governmental controls or regulations and environmental conditions that may influence the four elements of value:
- Demand – the desire or need for ownership supported by the financial means to satisfy the desire;
- Utility – the ability to satisfy future owners’ desires and needs;
- Scarcity – the finite supply of competing properties
- Transfer-ability – the ease with which ownership rights are transferred.
– What have the homes that are MOST comparable to yours (subject property) sold for recently per sq ft., and  what is currently for sale (taking into account scarcity from above)?
– What are the prices being asked by your competing listings in and around your neighborhood.
Other Factors inside the two primary ones above include: (age of home, physical features, location, conditions of the sale, economic conditions)
