the main house at 84 king street was built in 1785 and the estate included typical dependency outbuildings. the property currently numbered 84 ½ king street was originally a separate kitchen, as evinced by the foundations for 2 large fireplaces still extant in the crawlspace. these would have been used for cooking and laundry. the kitchen likely dates from before the early 19th century. it was brought down during the great earthquake of 1886 and now sports the iconic earthquake bolts of many historic downtown charleston buildings. in 2008, it was completely renovated by well-known and respected builder harper j. finucan, under the watchful eye of the bar.
today, the home is immaculate, with all new electrical and plumbing - even including sewer lines to the street. the interior and exterior brick has been repointed. the concrete crawlspace is encapsulated and has a sump pump and dehumidifier - even though the home is high and dry. it also has is a water booster pump for extra water pressure. interior and exterior windows, trim, and fully functional shutters are freshly painted as well. start living the ultimate charleston experience, just blocks from rainbow row, white point garden and the battery, and world-famous king street shopping and dining at 84 ½ king street.
