Description
Located in the heart of the Old Village, this stunning and masterfully preserved home is one of the oldest private homes in all of Mount Pleasant. An artfully restored interior, a rich history, a private deepwater dock and sweeping views of the harbor and downtown Charleston make it truly a one-of-a-kind property. The home was originally built in 1858 under the direction of Captain George Washington Cullum, a United States Army engineer, and served as Mount Pleasant's lighthouse and keeper's dwelling. It was built as part of a plan to upgrade the navigational aids in Charleston Harbor and remained in use as a beacon tower until the Civil War. Following the war, the residence continued as a dwelling for the keeper of the channel lights and buoys in Charleston Harbor until World War II
