Property Description
A rare opportunity to own a distinguished piece of Beaufort history, thoughtfully restored and elevated for modern living. Step back in time without sacrificing modern comfort in the Historic William Ritchie House, circa 1870, originally built by a Union soldier and beautifully restored for today's living. Perched high on ''The Bluff'' at 27 feet above sea level, this exceptional waterfront home offers sweeping southern views over the Beaufort River and Intracoastal Waterway--watch boats glide by from your expanded wrap-around porch. Completely renovated, the home seamlessly blends historic charm with thoughtful upgrades. Original long leaf pine floors, restored Prairie windows, and the stunning original stained-glassfront door preserve its character, while all wiring, (see more)plumbing, electrical, and mechanical systems have been updated. A new roof, new white front fence, professional landscaping, and custom gas lanterns at the entry and garage add timeless curb appeal. The first-floor primary suite opens through French doors to the porch overlooking the water and features a fully renovated spa-like bath. The kitchen boasts handsome granite countertops and all new appliances. Custom drapes, a security system, new sunroom, and beautifully refreshed interiors--professionally painted in 2025--complete the home's elegant presentation.Comfort is ensured year-round with updated HVAC systems (upstairs 2019, downstairs 2020, primary suite 2024).A newly constructed garage by Allan Patterson and Mike Sutton includes a VRBO apartment above with an excellent rental history--ideal for guests or income potential. The full brick basement with access from the sunroom offers additional storage and flexibility. This remarkable home has been featured on the Tour of Homes, is framed by mature citrus trees including orange, kumquat, and grapefruit and boxwoods--adding a final touch of Southerncharm.
