There’s one-of-a-kind, and then there’s this South of Broad property. One of the most unique homes Charleston has to offer, 2 Concord Street gives new meaning to waterfront living, and it can be yours for just $7,950,000.Originally a degaussing station for the Navy, the property was fully renovated in 2010. Collectively, the over-water property—including a main house and guest house—spans almost 6,000 square feet and includes a private 240-foot boat dock.Sitting atop concrete pilings, the 4,689-square-foot, five-bedroom main residence juts out into the water. Its unique, lofty vantage point provides unapparelled views of Charleston Harbor, Fort Sumter, The Yorktown, Ravenel Bridge and the historic Charleston Peninsula. Inside, a grand staircase, gourmet kitchen and a climate-controlled wine room are just a few of the opulent home’s highlights.

The entire property—the first in the historic district to use solar panels—is as environmentally friendly as possible.
