A historic mansion in Charleston, South Carolina, dating back to 1800 was sold for $21.5 million, a record high residential sale for that market.
Known as the Casper Christian Schutt House, the property at 51 East Bay Street encompasses four structures totaling over 15,700 square feet, which include a three-and-a-half-story main residence, a guest house converted from an original stable, a second guest residence, and an indoor pool.
Robertson Allen, founding partner and broker in charge of The Cassina Group, represented the buyer and Charles Sullivan, founding partner of Carriage Properties, represented the seller.
“My clients were searching for a truly iconic home on the Lower Peninsula, somewhere that could grow with their family and reflect the character of Charleston,” said Allen. “The moment they stepped inside 51 East Bay, they were captivated by its profound sense of history. They are honored to become stewards of this remarkable property and look forward to honoring its legacy while creating memories of their own.”
