About 606 Simmons Street
Set within the heart of Mount Pleasant's historic Old Village, 606 Simmons Street is a one-of-a-kind custom residence that seamlessly blends architectural character, reclaimed materials, and modern functionality across a thoughtfully designed compound-style property. Built in 2022 and positioned within an X flood zone, 5,079- square foot home with a two-bedroom guest house above the garage, saltwater pool, workshop space, and multiple indoor-outdoor living areas -- all curated with an extraordinary level of craftsmanship and detail rarely found in newer construction. Designed with both scale and warmth in mind, the home features seven bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and two half baths, with soaring 12.5-foot ceilings on the main level and 9-foot ceilings upstairs.A main-level primary suite anchors the first floor, while expansive living and entertaining spaces create a highly functional layout for everyday living and hosting alike. The property is fully fenced and framed by a U-shaped driveway, turfed outdoor spaces, and a private pool setting that enhances both livability and privacy.
Throughout the residence, reclaimed and historic materials were intentionally incorporated to create a layered, timeless aesthetic. The front exterior is finished in reclaimed Chicago stamped brick, while reclaimed St Louis brick surrounds the pool area. Inside, concrete floors, extensive custom millwork, mushroom board ceilings, reclaimed wormy chestnut flooring from the late 1800s, and hand hewn hemlock beams dating back to the 1700s create a level of authenticity and texture rarely achieved in modern construction. Additional details include sinker cypress accents in the wine room, reclaimed railroad cart wood countertops, historic architectural pillars, and columns sourced from a historic home near Colonial Lake.
The chef's kitchen was designed with entertaining in mind and offers custom finishes throughout, including a concrete composite island countertop, copper backsplash, oak-paneled refrigerator surround, beverage center with reclaimed wood accents, and a separate scullery/prep kitchen. Adjacent living spaces include a formal dining room, expansive main living room with fireplace and chevron brick surround, and a secondary media/living space upstairs. A custom wine display with integrated lighting is tucked beneath the stairwell, while sliding barn doors conceal a well-appointed laundry room complete with a dedicated dog wash station.
The primary suite offers a refined retreat with reclaimed beam accents, grasscloth wallpaper details, a freestanding soaking tub, and a glass-enclosed dual-head shower with stone flooring. Additional custom features throughout the home include a hidden safe room measuring approximately 6'7" x 6'5", extensive built-ins, and thoughtfully integrated storage spaces.
Outdoor living was equally prioritized in the design of the property. The saltwater pool measures approximately 14' x 24.5' with depths ranging from 3'6" to 6' and features an expansive sundeck surrounded by reclaimed brick hardscaping. A custom timber-frame pergola, turfed entertaining areas, irrigation system, and exceptional drainage further elevate the exterior spaces.
Complementing the main residence is a guest suite offering exceptional flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, private office space, studio use, or potential rental opportunities. Additional features include a one-car garage with workshop space, tankless water heater, HVAC systems installed in 2022, slab foundation, and standing seam metal roof.
Located just moments from the Pitt Street Bridge, Alhambra Hall, Shem Creek, Sullivan's Island, and the restaurants and shops that define the Old Village lifestyle, 606 Simmons Street represents a rare opportunity to own a deeply intentional and architecturally significant property in one of Charleston's most sought-after coastal communities.
