MLS# 1410247 | 1441 E Montague Avenue North Charleston SC | Park Circle subdivision

This is a rare opportunity in Park Circle to own an award winning, green showcase home. This home was named the 2004 ""Green Project of the Year"" by the Carolina Recycling Association and is one of the most noted green constructed homes in the region. It features cutting-edge technology for energy efficiency and sustainable materials throughout. It is an adorable 2 Bedroom and 1/2 bath, with beautiful hardwood flooring in much of the home. The home has had multiple renovations since 2002 and is like new. A special nook off of the master is currently an amazing office but could also be a bathroom or walk-in closet. Energy efficient features include upgraded insulation including spray foam, lowE Anderson windows, high SEER HVAC with fresh air ventilation, Energy Star appliances, an energy management dashboard, and top-of-the-line LED lighting fixtures. Additional features include an encapsulated and conditioned crawl space and attic, as well as a solar tube for daylight in the master bedroom. Water-saving fixtures are featured including two 500 gallon rainwater harvesting systems for the landscape. Exterior is clad with Hardie Plank siding and trex decking. The home exceeds most green building certifications and utilities are next to nothing! The high-end kitchen is complete with upgrades that include stainless steel appliances, custom made white oak cabinets that are formaldehyde free and finished with GreenGuard certified finishes, recycled glass countertops, modern fixtures, and cork flooring. Custom bookshelves found throughout are also white oak and custom-built office desks are finished with Paperstone tops. The landscape features native plants to SC, custom pervious paving, a certified National Wildlife Federation backyard habitat, raised beds for growing vegetables, and direct entry into Palmetto Gardens park. A ""green"" playground is located directly behind the property. The house is conveniently located and only two blocks from Park Circle, the new Mixson development, Danny Joes Pool / Tennis / Gym, and within walking distance to coffee shops and the area's best restaurants. This property has been used as a showcase home, offices and training center. Some modifications will be necessary to convert it back into a home, which allows you the opportunity to give the home your personal touch. For as little at 3.5% down, a renovation loan would allow you to make the following necessary changes: Addition of a shower to the bathroom, addition of a closet, modification of an existing closet and incorporation of a washer / dryer into the property. It appears this home is in Flood Zone X, thus no flood insurance required. Buyer to verify all information including but not limited to schools, flood, taxes, etc.
