Ah, Charleston. Your allure is undeniable – cobblestone streets, captivating history, and an ever-growing price tag on your real estate. Today, we delve into 32 F St., a listing that embodies the city’s charm while simultaneously raising some serious eyebrows.
Step onto the scene and you’re greeted by a 1920s bungalow, exuding undeniable curb appeal. But step inside, and prepare for a reality check. This 1,092-square-foot abode boasts 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, standard enough. But for a cool $749,900? Buckle up, folks, because here’s where things get interesting.
Let’s dissect this “charming” price tag:
- Size matters, but not that much: At $687 per square foot, 32 F St. sits significantly above the Charleston median. Sure, it has historical charm, but size-wise, it’s comparable to many listings around the $500k mark.
- Landlord dreams (or nightmares?): The 0.11-acre lot might sound impressive, but remember, Charleston real estate comes at a premium per square foot. You’re essentially paying a hefty sum for a backyard you could barely swing a cat in.
- Location, location, location (with caveats): The Westside neighborhood offers undeniable charm, but remember, rising sea levels are a reality. You could be looking at a beachfront bungalow in a decade or two.
So, is 32 F St. a steal or a questionable investment?
