About this property
Every historic home has a story. Few have been preserved as thoughtfully as 808 Washington Street in Old Commons. Built circa 1890 and prominently positioned along one of Beaufort's most iconic streets, directly across from part of the Reconstruction Era National Historical Park, this remarkable residence represents a rare blend of history, craftsmanship, and modern comfort. Rather than simply renovating the home, the owners embarked on a meticulous restoration, partnering with renowned architect Allison Ramsey to honor its past while thoughtfully preparing it for the future. Throughout the home, historic details tell the story of a bygone era. Original windows, solid wood doors, staircases, exposed beams, and restored architectural elements have been carefully preserved, while locally milled materials and custom finishes seamlessly connect the home's heritage with today's lifestyle. At the same time, every major system including the roof, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC have been replaced to provide the function and efficiency expected in a modern home including a Level 2 EV charger. Inside, gracious living spaces, a beautiful designer kitchen, a custom glass walled wine cellar, 3 natural gas fireplaces and flexible accommodations of 5 bedrooms, plus a study and primary sitting room, create a home that is equally suited for quiet evenings or gatherings with family and friends. Outside, the iconic double front porches, private brick courtyard, fountain, golf cart garage, and inviting outdoor spaces embody the charm that has made award winning Beaufort one of the South's most beloved historic destinations. Just a short stroll from Bay Street's waterfront parks, restaurants, galleries, and shops, 808 Washington Street offers more than a place to live. It offers the opportunity to become the next steward of a truly special piece of Beaufort history.
