#1060: Victorian Period historically furnished townhouse with carriage house and courtyard just four blocks from River St.

The word elegance is a Victorian era word meaning decorated or embellished. No expense has been spared in making our Broughton St. townhouse synonymous with this term. Upon entering this high quality accommodation, you will feel as if you have stepped back in time. From the moment you enter the front door, one is immediately struck with the high metal ceilings and a stairwell to the second floor sleeping quarters. Turn left into the sumptuously furnished parlor and you will be treated to many pieces of furniture which reflect the furnishings prevalent to a home of this time period.

The front parlor features a very rare 1860's walnut lock side chest with a drop down secretary which once belong to the wife of a wealthy Connecticut financier. Immediately adjoining the parlor is the resplendently decorated formal dining room complete with crystal chandelier. A signed turn of the century Kittenger Chest from a Charleston home adorns one wall. A Chippendale style dining table and chairs dominate the room, as it once did in the home of a Virginia attorney. A built in liquor cabinet and web bar (constructed from an English wall cabinet) sets along the wall. A serving console on the opposite wall completes this period formal dining room. Exquisitely decorated gourmet kitchen adjoins the formal dining room.

The master bedroom is decorated in the French style of the 1860's - 1900 era. A beautiful hand carved Mahogany four-poster bed and chest-on-chest accentuate this lush setting. A converted 1890's mahogany music cabinet now houses the modern convenience of a television. Adjoining master bath features a Jacuzzi style tub.

The recently completed and brand new carriage house sets across the beautifully landscaped courtyard from the main house and sleeps four comfortably with a Jacuzzi off the single bedroom in this luxurious upstairs accommodation. Underneath the carriage house is garage parking for two vehicles. These two private homes can be broken for two separate parties or the whole complex is available for rent with sleeping arrangements for up to 10 guests for weekend stays or four separate bedrooms for longer stays of a week or more. Perfect for wedding parties, family reunions, business meetings or smaller gatherings of most any description, call or E-mail for rates today.
