Chisolm Loft Condominiums | downtown Charleston SC Condos for sale

The statuesque building was created as home to Murray Vocational School, where generations of Charleston artisans learned their craft. Along with the former gymnasium, the old school property was beautifully remodeled in the 1990‘s, creating 26 condominiums in the former school and six lofts and a cottage in the former gym.

Standing along the Ashley River waterfront once famous for timber mills that fashioned cypress and heart pine into building material for grand structures throughout the world, the property has been artfully renovated with to offer a new age of luxurious living in the historic city. Hardwood flooring, stucco details, stainless appliances and UV-treated windows are some of the pleasurable amenities at a location surrounded by Charleston’s beauty and history.

The churning mills of long ago have all disappeared along this southwestern tip of the Charleston peninsula, and the Chisolm Street properties now overlook quiet streets where the busy commercial past has given way to a relaxing, scenic residential location. At the old Rutledge Avenue pond nearby where water was once trapped to power steam engines, now there are the beautiful vistas of Colonial Lake and the ball fields and tennis courts of Murray Playground, ideal for walking, biking or enjoying a game. Facing the Chisolm building is the block-sized Horse Lot, where U.S. Army draft horses were once tethered and fed, and now is a pleasurable dog park, soccer field and frisbee area.
