Steeped in history and meticulously maintained, this approximately 3,000-square-foot residence presents a rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Charleston's architectural legacy. Originally constructed in 1818 by prominent merchant and planter Robert Murrell Venning, the home served as his primary residence while he developed other properties throughout the area.

A remarkable historic detail remains in the rear brick wall of the house, which dates to 1770. An outdoor fireplace enhances the space, creating a private oasis perfect for year-round entertaining.
