About this home
A rare opportunity to own both a distinguished Historic Charleston residence and an established income-producing property in the heart of the Historic District. The Jacob Rabb House, circa 1851, offers exceptional versatility as a full-time residence, Charleston pied-a-terre or investment property. Located in coveted Ansonborough, this exceptional historic home is just steps from the City Market and within an easy stroll of King Street, Waterfront Park, world-class dining, galleries and many of Charleston's most celebrated landmarks.Offering approximately 2,770 square feet, this beautifully appointed three-story residence features four bedrooms, three-and-one-half baths and the architectural character expected of a distinguished Charleston home, thoughtfully complemented by sophisticat modern updates while preserving its original historic charm and storied past. Gracious living spaces extend outdoors to a private walled garden, expansive courtyard and patio, along with two classic Charleston piazzas--creating exceptional spaces for entertaining, dining al fresco or simply enjoying Charleston's year-round lifestyle in the heart of the Historic District. The chef-inspired kitchen features a La Cornue range and Carrara marble countertops, while gated off-street parking--an exceptional convenience in this location--further distinguishes the property.
The home's thoughtful floor plan provides both gracious spaces for entertaining and comfortable separation for family and guests. Upon entering, a beautiful staircase and welcoming foyer set the tone for the residence. To the left, the updated kitchen flows into the dining room, with a conveniently located powder room nearby. To the right, a generous living room is filled with natural light, with a beautiful original fireplace serving as its centerpiece.
The second floor is home to the primary bedroom and an additional guest bedroom, along with a full bath. Just off this level, a classic Charleston piazza provides an inviting outdoor retreat--perfect for morning coffee, an afternoon with a favorite book or a glass of wine at the end of the day. The third floor offers additional flexibility with two guest bedrooms and a shared full bath, creating ample space for family, overnight guests or a home office.
Beyond its appeal as a private residence, 46 Pinckney Street presents a compelling investment opportunity. The property is currently operated as a licensed short-term rental with an established rental history and has been under new management since March, with strong recent performance and continued upside potential. This versatility allows a future owner to consider a variety of uses, whether as a primary residence, second home or income-producing property.
Few properties combine this level of historic provenance, residential livability, walkability, coveted off-street parking and income-producing potential in such a desirable downtown location. The Jacob Rabb House offers the opportunity to own not simply a piece of Charleston history, but a remarkable property positioned for both personal enjoyment and investment....
