Step into a piece of Beaufort history at the George Gibble House, circa 1865 -- a rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored historic cottage in the heart of downtown Beaufort just steps from Taylors Creek. Thoughtfully reconstructed and completely modernized in 2021, this property offers the character of a historic home with the peace of mind of newer construction. Extensive renovations included new framing, walls, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roof, windows, doors, appliances, and more, creating a home that lives like new while preserving the timeless charm that makes Beaufort so special. Inside, the main level features an inviting open-concept design with warm pine floors and coastal accents. The spacious living and dining areas flow into a stunning kitchen featuring vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, abundant natural light, quartz countertops, tile backsplash, and a gas range. Expansive glass doors open beautifully to the outdoor living space, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The living room is anchored by a cozy fireplace, perfect for relaxing on cool coastal evenings. The main floor also offers a versatile guest bedroom or home office with an en-suite full bath, complete with a classic clawfoot tub and tile flooring. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features vaulted ceilings, generous closet space, and a loft area ideal for additional sleeping quarters, a reading retreat, or flex space. Another guest bedroom and a beautifully designed full bath with an oversized tiled shower complete the second level. Outside, the private backyard feels like a hidden oasis with a pergola-covered deck, patio, and lush garden setting designed for relaxing or entertaining year-round. A large detached garage provides ample storage and parking, while the welcoming front porch offers the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee in a rocking chair overlooking picturesque Ann Street. Located just around the corner from Fisherman's Park with convenient public water access, and only a short walk or bike ride to Beaufort's waterfront restaurants, shops, and attractions, this exceptional property captures the very best of coastal living.
