Located in the heart of Hampton Park Terrace, 619 Rutledge Avenue is a distinguished 1919 residence listed and pictured on the National Register of Historic Places. Originally built for John and Sallie Williams, this stately four-square has been meticulously restored and thoughtfully updated to blend modern comfort with preserved architectural integrity. Rich in original character, the home retains heart pine flooring throughout the original footprint, a solid heart pine newel post and handrail, and solid wood four-panel doors - many showcasing their original solid brass and glass knob hardware. Historic details continue with the original fireplace tile and cast-iron firebox, picture rail molding, French doors in the entry vestibule, and beautifully preserved ''wavy'' glass windows with true divided light sashes. The staircase has been enhanced using beadboard reclaimed from one of the home's original porches, seamlessly honoring its past. The completely renovated kitchen is a striking yet timeless space featuring quarter-sawn white oak cabinetry in natural and black finishes, Calacatta marble countertops with a full slab backsplash, and a Bertazzoni gas range topped by a custom brass hood. Hand-forged solid brass hardware, a handmade Moroccan solid brass faucet, and an impressive eight-foot island with apron-front sink elevate both form and function. Adjacent to the kitchen, a butler's pantry adds convenience, while the full bath showcases Carrara marble, brass finishes, paneled walls, and the home's original clawfoot tub. Significant system and exterior updates provide peace of mind, including a professional exterior paint job (July 2025), all new HVAC systems and crawlspace ductwork (May 2024), attic insulation added (May 2024), thermostatically controlled attic fan, updated plumbing and electrical (by prior owner), Rinnai tankless water heater (2022), metal roof (2018) and EV charging hookup. The outdoor spaces are equally compelling. A hand-laid brick driveway provides off-street parking for two cars plus a golf cart. The fully fenced front and backyard offer privacy and room to entertain, with the south-side fencing currently being refreshed. A detached outbuilding constructed in 2023 (2x4 construction with insulated floor) offers flexible use and potential to be converted into conditioned space. Just moments from the green expanse of Hampton Park, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Charleston's architectural history - beautifully preserved and effortlessly livable.
